Absolutely spectacular, Ronnie. You did a truly beautiful job creating your Number Six. Magnificent! Congratulations. Clayton
Thanks!
Mr. Boyer, you are very gifted. You are one of the few numbered with Goodrich, Becket, and even Harrison (I mean that sincerely) who have inspired me to design my own clocks. I certainly don't mean to steal any thunder from Ronald and his MAGNIFICENT WORK!
Thank you both for even more inspiration. Like Newton said, "I stand on the shoulders of giants" - you two ... thanks again!
@@Induku what woodworking school do you recommend for me to attend to learn how to make wooden clocks and watches? Do you offer classes?
@@oceanblue4750 Unfortunately I do not have any information on where to formally learn woodworking or which schools to attend. I mostly learned from looking at woodworking videos on CZcams. At the bottom of this page there is a list of CZcamsrs that helped me with ideas and tips (indukudesign.com/video-gallery/).
Great video!
If anyone is interested I analyze a similar clock and show with detailed computation how it works, and how clocks can be designed to tick at the correct pace.
I also bring a short discussion about the nature of time. Enjoy:

'Stop to enjoy progress' one of the most important steps so many of us forget.
I really like this comment and will add one of these steps in all of my videos in the future :)
TOTALLY ! Progress will bring us to our END ! We should STOP to enjoy it ! Bruders, together, REVOLUTION !!
Absolutely beautiful!! Brought tears to my eyes !
You are an inspiration, Mr. Nelson! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks :)
One minute I’m living my life and the next, CZcams has me contemplating a career in clock making and craft fairs.
5 years ago I worked in an office. A few CZcams videos later and now I design and make a variety of wooden models (I bought the plans for this clock and did not design it). Just do it.
@@Induku where can I buy this plan?
I love how you pause to enjoy the process
Brilliant work! Hats off you man.
The sheer effort you put in is amazing
Incredible craftsmanship! That will make an amazing family heirloom for generations to come. Thank you for sharing!
Thats some patience and precision you have
Absolutely AMAZING work. Loved this video and your work! Thank you for sharing!
its not my video but thank you and youre welcome!
Thank you for this video. What a wonderful achievement! Meticulous in its creation...WOW!
beautiful video. i appreciate all the captions, too.
This is so beautiful, I love it!!!!

Magnifico! 👏🏼 I want that!
This is incredible. Amazing job
Excellent video, Ronald!
Thank you :)
it is a Awesome work. I saw a similar clock in Hong Kong. It is made with all wood, no metal bearing, screw, shift or etc. We have very advance mechanical watch in the world. I think old art thing should be with all old material.
Great job
Outstanding!
Master craftmanship!!! Wery nice, in deed!!!
Marvelous !
Amazing... So beautiful done😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
Great Video. Thanks for uploading it.
Wow... What a talent 🙏👍🙏
Awesome!
Very beautiful clockwork i like this work fantastic thank you very much
This is amazing clock
That a beautiful craftsman
Thank you
That was incredible and beautiful, next time please show how you built that TV :)
Great. It is an art piece.
Belo trabalho, parabéns!
Someday.. I want to be like you, making clocks! Keep up the good work! :D
Very nice!
Family Heirloom, eh? Awesome! So elegant and classy!
No doubt the coolest thing on CZcams. I wish I had the tools and the time.
Thanks. This is the coolest comment I got the whole month :)
Super belle cette pendule!
Beautiful wonderful
What a passion man! I am fascinated by clock mechanisms but your skill in building such pieces of engeneering just blow my mind. I notice that you have only 5k subscribers, thats normal, the people that can understund art engeneering are not too many . Just go ahead .
Thanks, I will continue to make stuff :)
It is refreshing to see handmade construction. A friend gave me a book about making wooden clocks. Im very excited to try my hand and create something wonderful for my family. We need a clock. Wish me luck:) Looking forward to more of your videos
Good luck! There are much easier ways to get a clock if you need one than to build a wooden clock - but none of these methods are as satisfying.
I totally agree:)
Really Nice
Very beautiful
the single MOST BEAUTIFUL project i have seen so far.!!!!
Thank you for the nice comment.
@@Induku no problem:)your work is lovely.please post more videos if possible!
@@pixiechick4367 I am currently working on making chess pieces for the chess board that I made a while ago and will post it once it is done. Unfortunately making 32 pieces takes ages (at this stage I have 17 done!) - but I think the whole set will be nice and will definitely have a video of the process.
@@Induku ok cool!ill be on lookout!!thx!!
Amazing
Волшебник!
I bought your orrery kit. My son learned about orbits at 2 1/2 years old. Thanks!
Nice!
Thanks! You have set right my nerves.
Великолепная работа.
Super work super job
Awesome😍🔥👍
Nice, I'm thinking of making one of these on my 3D printer.
красавчик, что тут можно сказать. Сразу видно что руки из правильного места растут... Молодец!
LOVELY
Wow! That was on another level!Really enjoyed watching 😊
Hi Ronald...such a great art... awesome..!!!
Can u plz share the gear details and calculation... Or can u just make a video of it... It will be great to understand...!

Superb...excellent..
U will adjust time daily??
Nicely done sir! You have inspired me to take on a project like this. Could you advise me as to where I would be able to get plans like this. Thank you for your help in advance.
The plans are available here: lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
Nice clock bro
Thanks dude.
This is amazing! was going to subscribe and realized that I already was a subscriber! 😅
I love wooden clocks, but i get crazy from a normal ones ticking already. This would probably make me jump of a building😂
Magnigicent! Thank you for sharing this. Would that i had the woodworking skills and the tools to do this fine mastery. A kit with laser cut parts of this clock's mechanism would be the only way for me :-(
انتبه الى عدد الاسنان. عجلة الدقائق يجب أن تكون 64 سن وهو وضع فقط 62 سن. قمت بالحساب ووجدت الكارتة 😃😅😅
Here are the plans for the clock then!

where were you find sizes for for gears? Nice video!
I just binged watched Clickspring building his over this last weekend... and then this pops up... outstanding! You have inspired me to make my own! I am curious though... after two years of use, how accurate is it?
I is still as accurate as two years ago. It does sometimes stop completely depending on the humidity. I think if I give it a service this will sole the problem and make it run better.
Its great to see someone else that actually uses tools instead of lasers. I dont understand why they think assembling a puzzle their computer made as being skillful.
It is nice to use tools but a laser is also a nice tool to use when making things. Whatever makes you happy when desining and making things are cool.
Good job! I like this video.i have a question ,to have an accurate time keeping how calculate the length of pendulum ,and how to calculate the weight ,i think when we put too much weight the clock runs bad
Clayton Boyer designed this clock and has a lot of information on calculating the various things that make it work. Here is a few answers for the some questions:www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.htm. And here is a bit more on how to design the pendulum and calculate the length: wikipedia.org/wiki/Seconds_pendulum
Hello! It has become an amazing watch structure. he has an unconscious great patience to work it out. You have a separate machine for each. A complete precise Machine park. all its parts are amazing, gears are made of wood and shafts are made of metal. How much would you make such a watch for me? at the end of the video what is the title of the music and the name of the artist. Wonderful music track.
It run without power? Nice very nice
Every day when I wind it I use my muscle power to lift the weight thereby capturing it (potential energy). The clock runs from this the rest of the day. It does not use electrical energy as most other clock in our house does.
What a beautiful piece of workmanship, I have made one as well, but I have had trouble making mine run, everything seems to be smooth, but still no success any advice
Clyaton Boyer has a whole checklist of things that might help to fix the problem in the section "Why doesn’t my clock run? " on this page: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/frequentquestions.htm I hope this helps!
Is there anyway I could visit with you? Possibly a website or some other way. I live in northern utah
Muito boa noite! É realmente muito muito lindo esse relógio 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 e como faço para adquirir um igual? Vocês poderiam me apresentar algum site de compra por gentileza? Agradecido estarei!
P E R F E C T
Which is the precision of the clock? In + - seconds / month.
I wind it every day and adjust it. It is quite accurate and out by a few seconds. The pendulum can be adjusted to increase the accuracy.
Hola Ronald. Excelente . donde puedo conseguir los planos
Beautiful work.....What did you the counterweight with?
Thanks. They weight is filled with small lead balls.
I like
Without batterz!! Great!!!
How accurate is the clock (if it could run forever how long till noon is clearly incorrect)? How long can it stay active without rewinding
It runs just over 24 hours on a single wind and is quite accurate over this period. I wind it every morning which means stopping it for a few moments and then adjust the hands slightly once done.
Very nice clock. Good job!! how many hours does the charge go on?
It last approximately a day and a half on each wind.
@@Induku wow really?great!
Great awesome work! Why you dont use laser for the gears ? because it burn the edges ?
Thanks :) There were several reasons why I did not use the laser for the gears. First was that I started this project almost 4 yeas ago, long before I got a laser. I had 3 gears cut but stopped until about a month ago. I wanted to finish the project in the same way as I started it by cutting the gears by hand (I did however trace them by laser). The second reason is that the wood is 6mm which is almost too thick and 12mm which is definitely too thick to cut through (I could have used 3 and 4 mm and glued pieces together but this seemed inelegant). Another reason is that the burnt edges might be a bit too sticky (there is always a slight residue). To remove it would have been a lot of work - and I think it would have taken more time than just cutting the gears (if I had a small belt sander it might have worked - it certainly would have helped during this project in any case). I am however happy that I did finish the gears by cutting it by hand.
@@Induku Thanks for the answer, i only worked with industrial laser cutters, 10-15 mm plywood is easy to cut with industrial cutters, but the burnt edges are still problem. Other way if cutted with cnc router. I like your quality works.
My answer for me is I made it, not a computer controlled laser. The clock is 400 year old technology, not state of the art 2000's. I just started on this clock, having made a different clock 19 years ago of a much different design.
plans for this same clock with numbers, since the site has a similar clock with out numbers, this number with numbers is much better
I made one of these a few years back and I managed to keep it running for around nine minutes before the pendulum stopped. I tried sanding the anchor teeth and the escape wheel teeth with sealer, to reduce friction but nothing really worked. My grandad got bored of be using his workshop for that project so now it just sits in the living room as an ornamental clock
Is your weight heavy enough?
@@Richardros18 to be totally honest, I haven’t actually weighed it, it’s an iron cylinder about 25cm long by 6cm wide. I’d estimate at about 7kg but without weighing I can’t be sure. Would you recommend a weight?
@@t.purkess9682 I think that should be heavy enough, might be not a proper alignment of the axis creating to much friction but hard to tell
I have recently assembled a wooden gear clock (one of those laser cut kits) and can may be advise you a bit better now (my previous advise was based on my watch making experience). Firstly you need to make sure that the gearwork runs freely (which you can check when you remove the anchor teeth). If that's the case than you need to make sure that the points of contact of both the anchor wheel and escape wheel are very smoothly sanded and than apply some wax on the anchor teeth and the escape wheel teeth as well.
How do you sleep with the ticking?
keren
привет , нет ли файлов в dfx ? пожалуйста , поделитесь прямой сылкой . также другими проектами. спасибо
Is it %100 accurate. Do you need to do something for fixing and making it accurate. Without any battery or something like this. How it works.
Great clock in deed. However my wife complained the tick-tack noise. My parents had a grandfather clock which was similar noisy. After few days nobody was able to hear ist. After a while, the brain filters the noise.
ammazing
What brand is that little milling machine you used to drill the centers of dowels?
It is a small kit that my parents got me many, many years ago. The name is Unimat - here are some more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unimat
Wow. I want to know do you need to raise the weight to keep it running(winding) ?
I wind the clock in the video at 11:38. It is with a small crank.
@@Induku Thanks a lot for reply. That clock is marvelous, good job👍😍.
Ở VN có ai bán không nhỉ. ? Minnf rất thích mấy mẫu này.
holy crap!!! Thats amazing. How long did that take you to build? Looks very time consuming. At least if you have a wheel or escapement wear out you can build a replacement.
I spent around 3 weeks making this clock but I started the process a few years earlier and did not work on it for a long time.
@@Induku cool, being made from wood if you were to let it run constantly, how long would it last before it wears out.
@@kwacz I am not sure it will happen in my lifetime. There are wooden clocks that are quite old and using modern composite woods, like plywood, should keep it running for many years or even decades to come.
Awesome work! How accurate is it over time?
It is quite accurate. Within 24 hours I cannot really see that it is running fast or slow. I wind it every day and mostly need to move the minute hand when winding. I then set the time and and this seems to work well. If the beats are measured over 5 minutes it has a bmp of 60.03 to 60.1. I get a bit bored after this and have not measured it for much longer. This is reasonably accurate but I can of course always adjust the bob of the pendulum to make it run slightly faster or slower - this might be needed if the temperature or humidity change that might change the wood BUT the room where the clock is located has a reasonably constant temperature and the humidity is reasonably low.
@@Induku That's the bit that puts me off making clocks......having to wind one each day or even once a week and the time not all that accurate......give me an ornamental clock with all the gears and things that make it look like a steampunk clock, that is lots of dark hardwood and brass etc, but the workings driven by an electric quartz module that only needs a battery every year or so......old is old, new looking old is OK if it looks the part.......my dream clock is the Atmos, but I just want to keep it polished and dusted off to see the time now and again but don't want to pay a few grand in the process......an Atmos look alike with an electric quartz module would really fit the bill and who would know the difference.
@@gangleweed I prefer gravity driven clocks over quarts mechanisms but luckily there is a clock for almost any taste. The designer of this clock (Clayton Boyer) does have plans for wooden clocks that have a variety of different quarts and other electronic mechanisms. Have a look and see, there might be one that you like that does not need to be wind AND cost much less than the Atmos :) www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
@@Induku Thanks, clock making is a hobby that once you get bitten is a lifetime experience..........if you like that sort of thing.
Do you plan in the future to sell this clocks.. I would definitely consider buying one.
No, I am not planning to make and sell these clocks. You can however buy the plans from Clayton Boyer here: www.lisaboyer.com/Claytonsite/Claytonsite1.htm
Você está de parabéns com este trabalho! Carlos Pedro Maceió Alagoas
Como faço para comprar?
Brasil
@@carlospedro8694 não está a venda kkkk, é um projeto pessoal dele
Na descrição ele ta mostrando o projeto original, vc pode fazer também
What's the accuracy? It's a nice looking pendulum assembly
It is quite accurate over a 24 hour period. I usually check it when winding each day but do not really adjust it that often.
How much would one of these handmade clocks cost? I am not interested in buying i just wanna know how u would price yours. Answer when u can please
