Analog clocks are beautiful things inside, using ornate gear trains to keep track of time in a dance of mechanical beauty. However, all too often, the complexity is hidden inside. This gear clock ...

[ekaggrat] designed a 3d-printed clock that’s fairly simple to make and looks awesome. The clock features a series of 3d-printed gears, all driven by a single stepper motor that [ekaggrat] found in ...

If you have ever sat in a quiet room with a wall clock nearby, you have probably noticed the steady tick-tock rhythm. It is such a common sound that most people barely notice it, yet the reason behind ...
