Bernd:
Hey Chris,

Glad your getting it straighted out.

Now as far as that last picture of the gear. Is it the way you took the pic or are those teeth curved to the right a very slight bit?

I was thinking that Bernd but having actually seen the wheel I think it must be an optical allusion  :scratch:

Almost every clock wheel I've made looks funny in pictures!  It's a strange illusion, but if you see the wheels
in real life, they're correct.  Odd what a camera lens does to closely spaced teeth.  I think it's caused by a
bit of barrel distortion in the lens, especially in point and shoot digicams.

Glad you got a good 'un, Chris!  The cutter jigs by Creed and J. Malcolm Wild are handy kit for us clock dabblers.
