Thanks for creating Amazing Creation.
Please checkout his channel, i just remix his design, all credit goes to him.
What I love most about it is the simplicity of the magnet. When seeing the thumbnail, i was already over engineering it in my head thinking about how the rotation of the minute hand would be geared up in the center so that it moved the hour one…
me too . sometimes we just have to think a bit simply about stuff
ha! glad I wasn't the only one.
I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't some kind of pulley system
You were definitely not the only one. Bloody magnets.
exactly. I thought there was system of gears inside the minute hand, which would rotate the hour hand.
I love how this clock works. And it's actually far simpler than the appearance would suggest. Elegant and simple, very nice combination!
Magnets, that's a simple, yet elegant solution and way less complex than what I had in mind, which is running a thin rod through the center of the large arm and stick a diagonal gear to it which would spin the small arms diagonal gear
Do both. Put the magnet into the minute hand and have that connected through gears to rotate the hour hand. That way it would be a true contactless floating clock.
My thoughts would be slightly more complicated, but would give a better illusion. Basically, you just glue the hands to two separate acrylic discs and then attach those discs to two gears like in the video. Then you can simply spin each gear independently which would rotate the glued hands. This would make it look like the hands are just floating there completely.
@@That_Awesome_Guy1 What I like about this one is that there is no glare or anything at all. Maybe a tiny strip of acrylic through the diagonal for each of the handles would also work and be less noticable
@@supraaznpride That's not really possible, or at least, I would be very very impressed if that was ever stable
@@That_Awesome_Guy1 no that would look like there are plastic hands glued to acrylic sheets
I love how simple yet mesmerizing the design is, like you wouldn't have expected this to work unless you had some engineering knowledge
This will be perfect for a school project. Loving it.
This is great for putting all the electronic at the bottom part. I thought there might be some wires in the upper ring.👍🏻
I just searched the video to know the mechanism behind the slow moving hand ,
Then the use of magnets just blowen my Mind.Hats off to ur engineering n idea
Nice idea.
When designing a PCB that I know I won't be using connectors, I prefer providing a hole to have the wires pass through or a double hole to use a pvc wire strap.
This is THE ONE application that truly does require a PCB at all. I understand that this video isn't a PCB design lecture but rather an ad for a PCB manufacturer. Still, I think that it is quite silly.
This project is great. It's one of those there where it's simple and makes sense, but it just messes with your mind.
Looks to be a fairly simple first 3d printing & soldering project, adding this to my backlog of projects.
Prefectly accurate! No seriously, looks amazing ;)
I desinged something very similar to this like 15 years ago. I never made it because 3D printing wasn't a thing back then and getting the parts made in a workshop would have cost $$$$$. How 3D printers have changed the world for the at-home designer!
Prototyping is easier, for sure, so you could have worked out the kinks before ponying up the $$. But outside of printing circles I doubt many people want layer lines or nasty looking plastic as a clock, even if it is interesting.
@joel6376 indeed most to dont that's why you can easily and cheaply use electroplating to give it that nice smooth finish look 😎🙏
Wow, your channel is like a hidden gem on TH-cam, keep up the great work!
Absolutely ingenious. And a fantastic build, too!
When I first saw the thumbnail I tried to take a guess at how this was made. So I thought I would use a couple of plexiglass circles with the clock hands glued on. Each circle has tooth gears on its edge, and those would be hidden by the outer wooden ring. Then the motor would be linked with them and hidden into the base. Cool to know that there was also a different way to make it!
I have no knowledge of 3D printing but the concept, design and manufacture of this clock is fantastic. Very impressed. 👌🙏
its always hard to engineer something simpler , great job
Looks dope.
Amazing work Wrench 👏👏
This feels like one of those magic tricks where it is actually even cooler when you know how it is done
I remember when I realized something like this was possible! Glad someone who could make it did too!
Edit: my idea used some form of mechanical linkage through the minute hand to drive the hour hand though
This Hollow Clock Idea is Amazing and I Definitely tried this Hollow Clock From My Home😉
Wonderful!
@@TheWrench ✌️
I mean.... the clock is pretty cool, but the title seems to be taking a bit too much credit for this project and the comment section seems to have missed that too.
I thought the same thing. They found the design online and reproduced it.
Mind blown!!!
Recently I saw a similar looking ring-clock but in a more classic fassion: there was a static vertical bar comming from the top of the ring to the center, holding a regular clock mechanism. When I saw it I thought it would be awesome if the minute hand was actually connected to the ring and moving, with an adjusted mechanism for the hour hand on the "center end" of the minute hand - a few days later I see this in my Recommended list :D
Thank you Algorithm Overlord for that spark of joy! ;)
Would prefer a transparent backplate to mount both clock hands with magnets - takes away the stick-something-through-iness, but adds a lot optically I think
Wow that is amazing!
I love it!
I'd say you're pretty good at making things, aren't ye?
Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
I like how clever but simple the magnet part is
saw a version of that the other day, it had both hands mounted to an acrylic plate and being moved by magnets. but it was bulky af, probably so that the magnets don't interfere? this version is much more elegant!
Lovely design. 'prefectly accurate' gave me a chuckle
Really clean build (and desk!)
Nice video, well done, thank you for sharing it with us :)
Very nice build... would you mind sharing the rotor cover with hour markings as well?
How do you set it up initially? Do you somehow advance the minutes until it gets to the right time? A cool addition for the next revision would be to have two hall sensors at the bottom, so you know when the hour and minute hands cross the bottom part. Then you can make it self-correcting, but adding a wifi module and pulling time from the internet.
lol found the engineer
simply set the position before putting the upper part on the base, then it will keep moving from there. you can see it at 4:35
I hall sensor would definitely be best especially if the thing gets unplugged. I do think it's interesting though that a lengthy calibration could have it in tune enough for a year. If you assume one full rotation of the minute hand takes 5 seconds, then it would take 12 hours to simulate a year. So a 12 hour calibration process would have it guaranteed accurate for a year (assuming the motor does not change in efficiency, which is a big assumption).
@@MrCreeper20k or just recalibrate at 6:30 every day
Goddamn MR Scientist sir👏
Great job, dude! That was amazing clock! I want to make it by myself, too!
Such an elegant design!
v cool, the effect is really striking, and i feel dumb for expecting some elaborate linkage or servo system and not just magnets
Amazing work bro!!!
I like it. I am wondering if you can take it a bit further and add a metal seconds hand and do the same thing gearing the magnet with the minutes hand. Making it a bit more of a floating realism effect? Maybe add lighting so the the effect looks more real to everyone that its floating in mid air. what a allusion. Thank for the TH-cam video.
Really imaginative work. Looks great!
Insanely creative man!!!!
love the idea,
thank you for sharing with us
Great video and a super cool clock. I've got a Jefferson golden hour mystery clock that's almost 70 years old. It's still working fine and keeps good time with its 50Hz replacement motor. The principle is the same but the Jefferson has style as well as function.
Sounds interresting
I have one too. It's a real art deco eye catcher.
This channel has really grown since the last time I've seen it. I still remember the mini pc video lol.
This is just wow! Amazing!
Cool project .... sweet use of the magnets
Thats so amazing!!
Please give this master piece 💕
Wow! I was expecting an rotating "invisible" glass plate within the circle, but the magnet solution is much cooler!
to have both hands floating separately from the frame, you could spin the actual plexiglass for one hand, and use magnets for the other
This is a reproduction of Jefferson golden hour clock , very popular in US 1950 period.
We can still get from US vintage market.
Interesting, thx for the info
Sick design, good works
Such a lovely and my favourite 😍 channel in my school days onwards
Looks very beautiful with a low cost raw material
That was awesome clock.
Simple and minimalist
I have a Vintage 1950s Jefferson Art Deco Golden Hour Mystery Clock. It works differently but gives the same illusion.
That’s beautiful.
How did you make the hands take steps in the end?
Nice variation on a Jefferson Golden Hour Mystery Clock (which I have). The Jefferson has just a motor and the minute hand is geared to the hour hand which is locked to a glass disc that rotates smoothly without steps.
The only thing in your very nice design I wondered about is why you glued a red minute hand to a black piece instead of just making that black piece red... but the engineering is ingenious simplicity.
The black hand give the optical illusion to the red cover that is a little shorter than the main black hand... the end of the black is visually confused in the black ring and the red piece seem floating.
Very genius design..i liked it 🔥
Love the idea of magnets - possibly next idea is glue the centre onto the back .... ?
Really nice. Many congratulations. 👍
More tiny pc builds pls
More tiny WATERCOOLED pc builds pls
Or
Making a steamdeck
I just wanted this, so I am happy.
Aa it used magnets for the hour dial. I think it could be made with just gears running through the minute dial too. Nifty project
That is quite clever, but if I ever get around to making one, I think I'll limit it to two moving parts, or parhaps three, including a second hand. I'm not quite sure how easy that would be.
you could layer 2 discs but friction will be a problem
Seesh this is fire bro you need more subs work herd you have the things needed to grow too
Hey! Wrench I love watching your videos, and I am also kept creating such DIY stuff inspired by you the thing is nowadays I am planning to mod and convert my old boring pc cabinet to a very interesting and my most favourite theme that is IRONMAN theme pc cabinet and I actually have planned everything very nicely, the place where I stuck is that I want a miniature of an ARC-REACTOR at the front side of my cabinet which should look similar to the one in the movies and also glows like the same bluish color whenever I want. Some miniatures are actually available at online sites but they are not like same or either so costly, so its my request that please can you help me with some of your views and ideas with this and creating an ARC-REACTOR which is non-3d printed, cheap cost ,looks and glows same, easily usable, less problematic. Thank you. LOVE YOU 3000💙💛❤.
Incrível, você acabou de ganhar mais um inscrito no canal
took me a second to realize the gear teeth spacing of the black gear is wider than the red to account for the different speeds the minuet hand and hour hand travel at. Super genius.
Good piece simple and smart engineering
Loved the hour hand mechanics
You could make a much sturdier one where the hands don't touch the outside at all, with transparent discs. Some old mechanical clocks did this.
Transparent discs would be the cheap version, you could even make the hands neither touch the outside nor the inside, seemingly floating entirely. But the cool thing with this design is that you can even stick your finger through it, which would be impossible with transparent discs.
one way to make the minute hand looks "disconnect" (no touching the outer circle) is to attach the minute hand to an acrylic round gear (as big as the outer circle) and rotate the whole gear with the minute hand attached to it.
With the big round gear as a clear background, it will be hard to notice the rotation
I agree, the hollowness adds a levitating feel to it
@@thanhvinhle2893 bro replied to his own comment
@@pancakedev6 that is a reply to another reply which has been deleted.
IIRC, the reply was saying that he/she prefer the original hollow design because it give the feeling the clock hands floating
i have been here since 2019, gotta say the video quality has improved
How do we get the files for the 3-D printed parts? I mean I could make it myself I don’t know the measurements.
I love this one . For real
That looks dope❤
Great type of IInovation 🔥
not only that, but most of the parts were printed out, this shows how the early thinkers improved on previous ideas to continue the flow>, vwd, u need to create akit for us non coders n makers>
this probably the best diyp out there>
nice, slight improvement suggestion : to have the black circle on the other side, that way we don't see the circle moving
Wonderful projects
Prefectly accurate indeed
You can use another method for better accuracy of time. Days after days, months after months, using Arduino alone will make more error in time calculation. So, another method is to use RTC module, which is more accurate. Another method is to update the time periodically using internet.
Amazing work and awesome product 👌
Magnifique bravo à toi
Love it keep up da good work
Thanks!
Great engineering bro 😁
looks awesome
great, but it doesn't really tell the real time, you should add RTC real time clock module or using nodemcu for getting the time from the internet.
but still nice to watch
5:18 You must not have watched to the end...
@@sed6 the oscillator on an arduino isn't particularly accurate, will go out of sync by the end of each day, if it's 0.5% it'll be up to around 7mins out of sync plus or minus. Also can drift a bit. Nice idea though, but definitely should use a RTC module if you want to stay in sync for more than the 20 minute demo in the video.
If the connection from the outer ring to the minute hand was transparent, it would really look like magic
You're a genius!
No, the black material should be tranparent then both the hour and minute hand would look like they're floating
Sorry, Frank Roquemore, you are correct. Only realised now that the mintue hand is the one that has the black material
Theres a vintage 40s-50s clock called the golden hour clock that looks similar but done mechanically. the hour hand moves by gravity and a gear box in the center.
Genius!
Amazing!
Brilliant work, dude! Really well done!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks Bro, you tooo
"stay safe" - from clocks?
@@elingrome5853 are you bald? because your head seems to be very aerodynamic.

Very creative work 👍😊👍 Like so much..!
Make minet ring transparent polymer for more realistic hollow effect..!
Nice projec it will be perfect with some led lignts
This is awesome!
I have to print this!!!!!! Amazing
this design would look amazing as a wristwatch
Thanks!
Thankyou too ❤
Genius, elegance.
Just looking at the thumbnail, my guess is two motors, one in the center to move the hour hand counter to the minute hand, which moves with a ring around the full edge. That sounds nuts and I can’t wait to see how it’s actually done
Edit: oh my god that’s genius
