Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I love these, and always want to print one until I realize that the printed spring only lasts a few minutes.
Astounding.
Could someone notify me when a print-in-place version is ready? /s
I think it would be awesome printed in silk PLA for the gears, like Eryone Ultra Silk Silver and Ultra Silk Old Gold with maybe some smaller gears in a ruby translucent red.
I printed the demo bit and it works quite well, same as another comment. I couldn't commit to something that doesn't last very long, seems a bit pointless having a full clock, but have to wind it before it gets to the next marker
It’s on my to do list after I’ve finished my speakers.
I printed this is Formfutura TitanX ABS mostly with a MicroSwiss 0.3mm coated steel nozzle. Main spring in PETG with 0.4mm nozzle.
In order to prevent elephant's foot (or a very very tiny version of it) I had to generally print on rafts, but dimentional accuracy was excellent on my Ender 5+.
Total print time 166 hours. Accessories were around 70 EUR (nozzles, pins, screws, model cost). I think I used about 600g of filament, so total cost around 100 EUR.
No I don't have an assembled picture, still working on it :)
Does anyone know where to find the stl?
Edit: found it. Tourbillion Clock
