It’s a very sensitive leveling issue now. I’m up to 30s continuous ticking.pic.twitter.com/1nLEfirVTG

The leveling mechanism is kinda silly: a set of four pairs of wooden lifting pegs. The instructions tell you which side to raise depending on where the tooth on the escape wheel stops relative to rocker. I’m using sheets of paper to adjust. Gonna add leveling scenes instead.pic.twitter.com/RoL4LMostF

Ok got up to 45 seconds. Now I know what the problem is. I’m calling this project done and triggering a new one: Project Clock Leveling. 3d printed shoes with leveling screws screw for the clock may be involved.

Right now you can justify anything as an exercise, but where do you draw the line to decide to print or buy?

Well in this case I think it might be cheaper to print. It’s going to be small and need a custom fit to the wooden feet. Off the shelf feet might not fit this.
