What are the sizes, please detail, please tell me soon, for school assignment, thank you

I did not cut the book pages to make the clock, so that I could keep the book. 1. Disassemble the book to page sheets. 2. Lay one page sheet of the book on a sheet of cardboard, fix them with paperclips. 3. Copy the position of all corners of patterns by penetrating the book page to card board with a sharp needle. 4. Draw patterns on the cardboard following the pinholes. 5. Cut patterns out from cardboard, assemble them to build the paper clock. I am afraid...did I violate the copyright law?

Me podrias pasar para imprimirlo y hacerlo ❤

magnificent! do you sell it?

Please make a step-by-step guide on how to do it.

Good day sir May we know the title and author of the book you use?

I appreciate @imaginemore for sharing the video. When I found it, I felt very happy to know that there is a chance I may join the paper-clock-assembling mate.

Additional know-how on assembling the paper clock: 1. Shift the cut-out hole on Part 26 to the left by 13mm, adjust outside cutting pattern accordingly, so that the clock stays perpendicular to the ground. The string hanging the weight is at the left from the center of the clock by half the diameter of Part 42. If the hole of Part 26 is at the center, the bottom of the clock tends to tilt to the right. 2. If some weight is put inside the pendulum bob, glue a few pieces of cardboard to Part 97 under Part 98 to increase friction between pendulum rod Part 94 and Part 98, otherwise bob may slip down by its weight. 3. Make the portion of Part 99 to be glued to Part 97 longer by 2-3 mm. This makes gluing Part 97 and Part 99 easier. 4. Glue the Part 99 a-b first, then Part 100 to Part 99, at last Part 97 to Part 99. If Part 97 is glued to Part 99 before Part 100, it is hard to glue Part 100 to Part 99. 5. Insert and glue hard cardboard in Part 70. Part 70 may a little too soft depending on the cardboard used. 6. Widen the width of the cut-out hole of Part 71, Part 72 and Part 96 to the bottom width of Part 95, Widen the whole width of Part 71 accordingly. This keeps pendulum stabler when Part 72 becomes soft. 7. Widen the rim of Part 43 and Part 44 by 3-5 mm, so that the strings don't come out of the wheel.

I bought this book at San Fransisco more than 30 years ago. I assembled it then for myself, and recently one more for my grandson. They worked very fine. When the effective length of the pendulum is precisely adjusted by moving bob, they kept accurate time within one minute a day. ..... Some know-how on assembling the paper clock: 1. Position of axle hole on the Part 67 is wrong. Part 65 is correct. (This was the only one error I found in this book.) 2. Make thin tubes by card-bord, insert them to the center of the gears and anchor. This makes inserting axles much easier. You do not have to search for a small hole from the other side of a gear. (This was always very hard for me.) 3.1 After drying glue, squeeze all the teeth of smaller gears at the center of large gears by a pair of pliers to make them thin. 3.2 Let instant glue sink into all the teeth of gears and anchor to harden them. 3.3 Rub all the teeth of gears and anchor to smoothen their surface. 3.4 Apply candle wax to all the teeth of gears and anchor. 4. Measure distance of centers of engaging pairs of gears, adjust position of holes on Part 4 and Part 10 according to the actual measured gear distance, give small allowance. 5. To connect the power-gear pully and minute-hand-gear pully, use two turns of cotton string ring, instead of a rubber band. With a rubber band, adjusting time by moving minute-hand is a little hard because of elasticity and friction of rubber. Cotton string ring allows pully to slip. Cotton string ring should not be too tight, nor too loose. 6. Put some weight inside the pendulum bob. This makes movement of pendulum steady by increasing kinetic energy when it sways, hard to be affected by air flow. 7. Make minute-hand longer by 1 cm than the plan. This will avoid touching hour-hand while adjusting time by moving the minute-hand. ..... I made another Clock Face. 1. Cut off the inside of the frame. 2. Cut out number figures, put them on the frame. With this face, I enjoy watching the movement of gears from in front of the clock.

broo this is super cool! you gave me a great idea for a project!

I wish they had an illustration of the reduction gear, pieces 81 thru 87. I can’t see where 86 and 87 go.

I waited 30 years for this video. What took you so long?

And for his next trick.....he'll make ice outta fire. Seriously! This is awesome. I want one

Amazing. Is it paper or 1mm card?

Hlo can you pls tell how did you made it

What book did you use to make this ?????

Thanks for the inspiration. I have this kit, but have never had the courage to complete it. You have inspired me to try!

Last night I bought a pair of grandfather clock hands on ebay. They're beautiful brass things, and I was vaguely thinking that maybe I could affix them to a new clock. I've spent a lot of time in the last 24 hours searching through dozens of websites trying to figure out how I can buy a clock movement that would fit these old hands to no avail. Watching someone build a fully functional mechanical clock out of paper in the middle of this unending nightmare of web searching feels vaguely as though I am being taunted by forces beyond my comprehension. This was really beautiful work, it looks incredible and the video is wonderful. I'm think I'm going to spontaneously combust.

Ive tried building this 4 times over the years. Is there a error in the insructions? In the rewind mechanism part. I always have problems there. It like the instructions are backwards for that part.

Not BAD😮 3:17

buen día amigo......tu video es excelente........casi diría fenomenal........un mecanismo hecho a besa de carton es muy interesante...........lo que faltaria son las medidas de todas la piezas para seguirte en la elaboration del mismo................se agradece por l video......bye.

After having the book for many year I'm finally starting today. Thanks for the video! Studying every frame!

Congratulations! I bought the book too but couldn't do the wheels precisely enough and it jammed :-(. Can pls let us know how long the clock ran before the gears wore out? PS: I took the modern-day short cut. Bought a quartz electronic pendulum mechanism ...

Comprei o livro (book) e estou tentando fazer, mas acho que não vou conseguir, está em ingles e eu só falo português e, bem mal, kkk. Parabéns 👏👏👏 e um abraço! Brazil.

This is excellent!

Can you share what book is it

What a good idea and what a good project ! ! ! congrats

I’ve taken amphetamines before too bro. I know that feeling. Lol And of course, well done! I’m impressed!

donde se puede comparar

Sir will you please give me the clock drawing or diagram. I also want to make that but I don't have diagram. Please sir help me

Now make a mechanical paper wristwatch.🤣🤣🤣

how to assemble the rectangular piece n° 98 that is in that book? because I have not understood yet and it says that it must also be folded but how?

Is there a lubricant used for the pins and other moving parts, or is it just paper on paper?

Amazing attention to detail ... _Well Dne_

What is the book name. Is it available online?

great job! got any other projects/videos in the works?

Awesome

What is keeping the pendulum running?

Hey make sure it does not get water in it

What is the name of the book?

Amazing! I built one as carefully as I could over a two week period and had NO success. Your building skill is AMAZING! Congrats.

I have now tried this twice and have never been able to get it to work! Very jealous :)

Congratulations on completing the clock! I bought the book a very long time ago and got into trouble with the big wheel. It couldn't engage the gears properly and jammed. It's so nice to be able to finally see it work.

where can I get a template of this clock?? I really want to make one like this

Good stuff. It's About Time is an event in Division C of Scioly this year, and I bet a lot of people will do this.

it's super hard to be successful with this kit.

can you send the link for the templates?

👍👍👍👍👍

That is fabulous
