@@luccadeahl5340 Ok, but why? A clock has hands. What resembles hands more, in a pigeon? The wings, or the legs? Biologically, it's very clear that a bird's "arms" are its wings and not its legs.
Every 10 seconds it's one minute. Every 10 minutes it's one hour. Every 10 hour it's one day. Every 10 days it's one week. Every 10 weeks it's one month. Every 10 months it's one year. It all makes sense now
Funnily enough, 45 seconds is the amount of time you typically wait when blooming a pour over coffee. So essentially you've made a bloom clock! Congrats!
I wish I was rich enough to have Uri build me odd mechanisms for a curiosity cabinet and see people struggle to work out the meaning / purpose of them all.
There was a website long ago called Gary's Wooden Clocks. It said that since clocks only rotate in one direction, only one surface of each gear tooth actually matters. Make the back of the pigeon head follow an accurate gear tooth profile. The other gear tooth surface can contain the pigeon's beak. The gear should operate as accurately as a traditional involute gear in one direction. You have to flip over all the gears that rotate counter-clockwise.
@@Zer0ji Sure, you could get it to work with the beak on the meshing face, but it won't be as efficient. The power transfer will vary depending on the position. Drive weight will need to be increased or runtime reduced for the clock to continue running through the weak phases. Running the pigeons backwards will have maximum efficiency through the complete rotation, so runtime can be increased.
I just love the thickness of Uri materials. I'm going to make a delicate clock mechanism - and he whips out a piece of sea going brass a half inch thick! Truly a work of mechanical art as usual. Does it work? Yes it does. Does it have a purpose? Not in this universe ...
Not me giggling at this very silly concept for a clock on a day when I'm feeling extra crummy from migraines! Thank you for the giggles! It's beautiful!
By far the coolest metric (10 hour), single footed, Pigeon themed, interference pendulum non-clocks I have ever seen! As always, it was a great video. The perfectly timed comedic pause at "the pendulum swings between the legs" had me spurting orange soda out of my nose! Fantastic work all the way around.
@@TheGrinningViking OOOO, tricky. But there are 12 inches in a foot, not ten, and 12 hours on most clock faces, not ten. Sooo Metricerial? or Impetric?
this thing is just fantastic in so many ways, it measures 44,5 seconds divided into tenths, and the second hand (or the two hundredths of 44,5 seconds-hand?) is a foot. And the only answer to the question "but why?" is "well you see, the gears are pigeons.." Bravo, sir
I've learned over the years if you expect it to work the first time it rarely will. It's better to remain sceptical because life likes to prove you wrong. Great video.👍
Met Uri at Maker Central last weekend. My meds were kicking my brains out my ears and I just gushed about loving his work and how it made me use more brass. He asked what projects, and for some reason I just stared and said "knives" in an unintentionally sinister moment of brain-fog (I do make other things I swear!). I went to leave before Uri called for security, but he stopped me and handed me a handmade paper postcard with a drawing of a pigeon he made. Everything Uri does is part of a wonderfully absurd world, and this clock is a perfect example of that.
Uri is awesome i started watching him many, many years ago. He shows his mistakes, issues, problems and shows that things don't always go smooth. The way his mind and humor is just what i need some days.
Never have I ever felt like I could build a clock, until now. Ive watched people build clocks before but i still didnt understand how it worked. After wathing this, i have a much better grasp on the mechanics.
I saw this on Patreon and I couldnt help but watch it again here! Love the Clickspring-on-crack energy, Uri!! Really fills the Antikythera shaped hole in my heart! Another awesome project as always!
Clickspring is still working on the Antikythera mechanism, there was a very long time where there wasn't much video content on it as he was working on the paper he was writing regarding his discoveries over how it works. Now he is mostly done with that side of things, the pace is picking up on the mechanism itself and the video making, craftsmanship does take time though, I wonder how long it took to create the original mechanism?
Ive been looking at all of the updates on his patreon for a while, I am really getting excited to see what it will look like when its finished! I really cannot imagine how long it would have taken for an ancient craftsman to do!
Just wanted to say, I love your shenanigans and your style. Your age old beauty and artistry which you build into your projects and your passion for the wood and metals you use, all of which represent your trademark, is lost in today’s manufacturing and design and your channel is certainly a breath of fresh air! Please keep your often quirky but very inspirational videos coming and don’t change a thing!❤
Aw man, this was a great video! Your eye for the absurd coupled with your sense of humor is just brilliant, like 14:18. I love it. And on top of that you are an excellent artist and craftsman. Also, props for the clocked screws!
I love your videos. So much skill and thought there, but the zany sense of humor just makes my week. "We'll have a hand, which obviously will be a leg". This will forever be stuck in my brain when I need a silent and private chuckle. Thanks.
It was fun watching Uri do egregious things with hand tools, but I feel like getting real machine tools has truly unlock the shenanigan potential in him.
Gorgeous piece, love the bend in the pendulum actually, and I love that the pigeons actually have 3 stages: cavity entry, middle cavity, and cavity exit.
Uri, I just want to say that I deeply appreciate your particular breed of insanity, level of commitment to absurdism, and all around funky point of view. Thank you for being you, and for sharing you wackiness with everyone!
i am a watchmaker and loooove this. you are skilled and a great guy! all you have to set now is the "reperé" which is the same amount of time between the tic and tocs (bendulum swing left an right)
I love showing all the errors and returns of your work, while cutting out any boring stuff. It is quite entertaining and educational at once. Nice work (and also the clock) .
I sware i saw clock mechanism and thought i was going to see you handcraft a clock. Didnt even think twice about it. I know how involved clock mechanisms are. The tiny details of every gear moving in harmony. This is how highly i think of your skill as a maker. This was amazing too. Its always a treat to see you in action and fun too.

It connects all the places in the universe where there aren't any pigeons.
This is like watching Clicksprings, but from a parallel universe.

It is accurate! It clearly shows how fast time flies in the shop! Best video I've seen all month (or probably longer).
Thank you! Since it's only a minute dial, the weight falls all the way down in like 6 revolutions, so I have about 4 minutes to enjoy the ticking😅
@@urituchmanpigeon perfect to time an egg
It's also counting down! Adding a bell to bottom of the weight or a periodic chime at 10 would be fun
How is your pantograph practice sessions going so far?

Mine's more like 30 seconds. But really, I just wait until the foaming stops.
And it's counting down, this would fit perfectly in an indie coffee place or just as a very interesting, questionably useful, fun item

That was my first thought - follow an involute pattern only on meshing surfaces
To keep the spirit of the clock, the pigeon should be on the meshing face, and the perfectly fine gear surface should stay unused!
@@Zer0ji Sure, you could get it to work with the beak on the meshing face, but it won't be as efficient. The power transfer will vary depending on the position. Drive weight will need to be increased or runtime reduced for the clock to continue running through the weak phases.

That's the joke
This is without a doubt one of the nicer pigeon-themed clocks ive seen.
Easily in the top 10 pigeon-themed clocks.
This could totally be a timer. The coolest timer ever. Forget cube timers now we have pigeon timers.
Ideal for cooking pigeon eggs perhaps?
A prank timer that looks like it counts down from 10 but actually takes 44.5 seconds
It's nice watching an original genius at work. You read the books and immediately threw them all out.
As a watchmaker who built several clocks I can say, this is really great work!
This is definitely the best video on TH-cam about using pigeon-shaped gears in approximately a clock.
