O!M!G! I just assembled my print. It was so ... satisfying, fulfilling, tasty, compelling ..... to assemble it. What a nice construction. I am still sitting with a smile in my face and can't stop watching the result. Thank you sooo much. Please more of those perfect stuff!
Thank you very much! Actually this is the first report to make this clock and I am very happy to hear so. If possible please post your make to the 3D data sharing site (Thingiverse, Instructables or Printables) you prefer.
I need to update my previous comments. Even though he lives on the other side of the globe from me, he took the time out of his daily life to help me get the Arduino issue solved. A week ago, I had never heard of a Arduino board. Being very new to this tech was daunting to say the least. Now that I have the motor working and all the parts printed, I'm ready to start putting thing this amazing project. Thank you so much for your help.
I’ve never seen anything quite like this before, and believe me, I’ve seen some pretty cool and unique time displays over the years! The only one I’ve seen that comes close is the Devon Tread watch: a watch that uses belts traveling in different directions to display the time. It’s similar to this, but WILDLY expensive (I’ll NEVER be able to own one no matter how much money I make)-and in a watch-size package, of course. But I’m sure if I had a 3D printer, a stepper motor, and some electronics to control the motor, I could build this for about $100 or less!
Yeah, I know Devon Tread Watch. It is really cool -- so I made the other clock based on flexible links. Please take a look at th-cam.com/video/Fb3q3tYTuyU/w-d-xo.html www.thingiverse.com/thing:5177027 The cool feature of "The Timing Chains" above is the carry-up mechanism. The number of time is not always decimal. 6 step motion of 10 min digit (60 minutes) moves 1 step forward of hour digit. This clock shares exactly same mechanism for both of 1min-10min and 10min-1hours links. The only difference is the length of chain (flexible link). Only "0" has a protrusion at side, and it moves the neighboring digit. I believe you like that one.
The schematic depends on the type of micro controller. If you use Arduino nano with supplied source code (without modification), connect D4-D7 to the four input pins of ULN2003 board. connect 5V and GND to the + and - of the driver board. That is all.
@@YamamotoTV2021 You always say so, however, it is trivial that this design is not suitable for 24 hour system. I made some clocks for 24 hours. Please try them. shiura.com/dfab/index-en.html
Yes, however, it is necessary to increase the diameter of the hour wheel. If you divide the hour wheel to 10s and 1s places, the carry-up mechanism would be very complicated.
It is not suitable to be driven by a battery. The stepper motor (28BYJ-48) draws around 150mA when it rotates. It takes 5 seconds to increment the ones place of minutes rotor. Therefore, average power consumption is 12.5mA (= 150 * 5 / 60). If you use 1500mAh 5V battery, it might last 120 hours (6 days). Usually, mAh description on the spec sheet does not mean the current-hour capacity with output voltage (5V) but a single cell (raw LiPo cell, 3.6V or around) capacity. If so, 1500mAh x 3.6V battery stores the same energy to 1080mAh x 5V battery. In this case, it lasts 86 hours with this clock.

Just now I saw your great art of clock in thingiverse You did it great.
This is so cool! I might make one soon if I find time for it! Thanks for sharing the files🙂
Thanks, now the assembly guide is uploaded!
Very nice and original design, in line with your previsious projects.
Love your clocks! My son and I have built 3 of them.
Simply amazing, thank you so much for sharing this.
Thanks!
Very nice 👍🏼 Now print it in some nicer looking filament and it will be super nice 😎
Thank you, I am really looking forward to seeing your make!!

Having a very hard time reading the pin outs do you have a Schematic for me to follow?

@@shiura Thank you I ordered the Arduino from amazon. not sure if it was the nano
How clever, how brilliant, well done, this is inspiring!
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Is it possible to operate a 24-hour system?
No, the design is only for 12h system.
@@shiura If you could please create a design for the 24 hour system, that would be great!

I made some clocks for 24 hours. Please try them.

@@shiura Cool! I will have to try making them later.
Greate job!
@shiura
I only had to watch this ONE TIME, and I knew it was possible to create a 24 hour version of this.
Yes, however, it is necessary to increase the diameter of the hour wheel. If you divide the hour wheel to 10s and 1s places, the carry-up mechanism would be very complicated.
I’d like to see you try to do a 24 hour version regardless
I wonder how much power it need?
That and how long it will run on (let's say) 1500 mAh battery?

@@shiura Awesome! Thanks for the information
Could you please add a link to the components that you used. I'm not that well versed but can follow your diagram but not sure of the parts
Please try to get
* Arduino nano
* 28BYJ-48 stepper motor (usually the driver circuit board comes with each motor)
👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Hello where is the code for the arduino ? Thank You
Find "numechron.ino" at 3D data sharing sites listed in description. For example, at Instructables, in Step 6.
Semicircular canal clock.
can you share code to upload for arduino? thanks
