Outstanding my friend! I think it would be extra special to see a rack an pinion for the slide
Fantastic comments by the way!
hmmm, you got me thinking there…
I’m actually working on something, maybe I can reuse that:
btw. the above watch face is now published: TX-CR141
This is a really awesome thread guys! Amazing stuff!
You may have it figured out already, but I thought I might pass this along anyway
Yes, thanks, been trying to do the rotation in both directions of the rack gear depending on a condition. But I was on the wrong track. It struck me this morning, that the rotation is the same as the vertical movement. Check the watch face now. Still not so happy, since the gear traverses the shaft of the hands…
Attempt at square gears. My first versions looked like they were biscuits…
Important seems to be position and size. Right gear is smaller and has dents on the sides. (open for inspection)
Looking good - I like the wire frame hands partcularly! I’ve been thinking of making Wankel rotor shaped gears for fun but have too many things going on at the moment to attempt. I’m still amazed at the quality of your gears!
Gauss has made a Wankel geared watch….
Just had a look at Gauss’ wankel watch - it’s amazing. I was thinking of gear teeth on the external rotor surface rotating inside a ring with internal teeth. As an ICE it obviously won’t work but with the magic of smart watches…
Wonderfull .I was looking at the Hrmomic Drive .That is it just a few more teeth .
I am going to make a new Collection for Gears . Thanks for showing us That .
where’s the rotary engine for the Mazda fans?
I tried to take these gears from Maurice Lacroix Facer as well as from pictures of the real watches as a reference for attempting this setup. I could not get the gears aligned, so I ended up creating my own gears with a lot bigger teeth. It took several tries and quite some trial and error…
Amazing Well Done. Thanks for posting the Gauss Wankel.
And here the gears…
Still playing with gears…
Tap the center to change the rotation.
Wow! That is amazing movement. Thank you for the resources also
Jesus!
Just when I think I’ve seen everything you guys come up with new crazy things!
