malc, I just looked back through all the post and It is amazing to watch it come together from your first gear to now. The video was phenomenal. Thank you for taking the time to post the process. It definitely shows your talent. As for me, I am still to intimidated by the precision of everything, maybe after I get a few more hours under my belt. Thanks again, it's awesome.

Coming along, nearly finished now, about a week of testing then it can be moved to it's final position. I think 'er indoors will be pleased to have my building jig out of the dining room! Time keeping is about two minutes a day at the moment but I know I can get it much better that that. I will post pictures of her when she is in situ on the wall. Note it is changing to a her as I become more endeared with her.

something like this?

The next "Scrollsaw Woodworking & Crafts" magazine will have a plan from Clayton Boyer included. I'm looking forward to that one.

My task is complete! Clock now fully working and installed. I hope you have enjoyed the journey as much as I have making it. Unfortunately I have now got the taste for clocks and am pouring over plans for the next one, a grandfather to stand in my hall. It is fitted with the complex 'Grasshopper' escapement and I think will test my scrolling skills to the limit. Final two videos are in this post.
