Printables has no fee to open a store, so it should be appealing to many new designers. They do limit the number of designs allowed until you reach a certain number of sales.
@@woodwaker1 Printables is a great source for files. I slightly prefer MyMiniFactory for selling STLs because they have a smaller commission. Earn more real money! I donate my Prusament points when it goes above 200.
I've been searching around for a clock model to 3D print and found this one. Wow, phenomenal work. Such a beautiful design. I just created an account with myminifactory and purchased this model. Looking forward to the project. On my way to Etsy to get the hardware pack. Thanks
Great Clock Steve! I always look forward to your 3d printed clocks. Now that I have some really good printers I gotta make one! These are initially what got me into 3d printing! (Like your models and videos)
I run the same quality checks that MyMiniFactory runs, so it should be good. If I missed something and needed to make an update, you would have access to the new files for as long as you can still log into your account. You will have access if I make updates 5 years from now. The quality checks and accessibility are the main reasons I have stayed with MyMiniFactory.
Thanks for your reply, Have bought the plans and now the fun part, making it on a K1 printer a bit faster at making the parts, think about some add on gears on your clocks to chime a bell once on the hour and using a 1 rev 24hr gear to program the silent time, like to add this to my impulse clock
@@janetmorris6792 A passing strike that rings a single bell on the hour is easy. It could be as simple as a cam on gear 4b or the spacer below gear 4a. Adding night silence would require at least one new gear. One of my grand plans is to add a full Westminster chime. I estimate that it will double the complexity of the clock. One of the first hurdles is building a good sounding chime using commonly available materials. I prefer not having every builder track down a specific size chime bar from a clock repair shop.
Hallo Steve ich habe ein Problem! das weigth_shell_pulley ist im Durchmesser zu gross und passt nicht in das weight_shell_top 3P2 ! kann ich auch das pulley von der easy clock nehmen?
Sure, you can use the pulley from the easy build weight shell. You may need to guide the cord when winding. The moon phase clock has a larger pulley and a deeper slot in the weight shell body to provide more separation on the cord. I believe that the STL files released with the design are correctly matched. Is it possible that you printed a weight shell body from the easy build clock? If so, then it would need the smaller pulley from the easy build clock.
ich habe tatsächlich die falschen gedruckt und das gleich 2 mal falsch! Mit 75 ist man manchmal etwas unachtsam Ich werde mich bessern! Schönen Sonntag wünsche ich dir
Steve, can this be done on the LARGE Crazy gear wall clock as well, with some mods possibly? (I really like that one and it has been one of the most accurate and unique with the gear designs built from of your collections.. It's ran continually since day one without any issues whatsoever.. 👍👍). LOVE the 'test cookie idea!! 💖💖
Every design gets more and more reliable as I discover better methods. The moon phase clock seems more reliable than the crazy gear wall clock. It uses a smaller gear tooth that allows 12 tooth pinions compared to 8 teeth in the crazy gear clock. The active gear tooth surface is the same, but more pinion teeth will have less engaging friction. The only clock that is more reliable is the small 8 day clock. Smaller gears need less drive weight. However, the larger gears look so much more impressive. They just take a bit more weight to run reliably. Also, the only reasonable gear ratios for the moon phase gears are 59:6 and 60:5. These need to have a tooth pitch that is smaller than the crazy gears would allow. And the intermediate moon phase gear is right in front of gear 5 in the lower left corner. The clock looks better using the small gear teeth everywhere instead of mixing sizes.
Steve, im just a average consumer, I just would like to buy the clock, I don't wanna buy any 3d printer or mess with the assembly, like the most the people in the world, however I cannot find any link for purchase it, on other hand I'm an entrepreneur, bro you literally loss tons of money and community for don't selling the final product and just layer for 3D printer geeks , that its a very tiny community, Now I'm forced to buy a Chinese Pendulum Wall Clock in Amazon, thank you for your answer :)
This design is completely optimized for 3D printing. I have considered selling a few fully assembled clocks. It would likely be a volume of 1-2 units per month. Selling it as STL files allows the design to reach hundreds of users. There are plenty of wooden gear clocks available from other designers if you want to avoid buying a Chinese pendulum wall clock from Amazon. :)
I am going to have to print another clock! Have you ever considered also making an eastern arabic numeral face ? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Arabic_numerals#References
Steve's clock are awesome. I am now printing my second clock of his. It's the moon phase clock.My first clock is keeping great time.
Steve, another ingenious design. I will add this to my future Que. Glad to see you moving to Printables

Thanks. Glad you like it. Enjoy your build.
Beautiful! I'm not sure where I'll find the wall space... but I will!
Another amazing clock Steve!.. thank you for sharing.. 🙏
once i have finished the sp7 I am buying the files for this puppy, It is beautiful.
Great Clock Steve! I always look forward to your 3d printed clocks. Now that I have some really good printers I gotta make one! These are initially what got me into 3d printing! (Like your models and videos)
I love the idea! You should make a time lapse of it shifting. That would be cool.
Holy Mother of God this is a masterpiece! Our friend Steve made a miracle here!
This is really cool and totally deserves more love! What a neat clock!
Is there a version which only has the moon phase?
another that I will have to add to my collection, Should I buy know the reveiw copy or wait for the final publish

Congratulations! excellent design!
When will the smaller version of this come out?
The design only needs a few small adjustments. However, the manual still needs to be written so it will be a few weeks before it can be released.

The dial is included as a STEP file if you want to make changes to your design. Please post pictures.
