| Building Weston Bye's Magnetic Clock - A work in progress |
| (1/3) > >> |
| George_Race:
Ever since seeing Weston's Magnetic Clock at the NAMES show in the Detroit area, I have been busy duplicating his work. I have made some changes and modification along the way but the overall design is Weston's. The only really unique thing that I have done, is designed the mounting base to hold the clock while it is being worked on or displayed. Here is a link to the build that has been going on for the past couple of months. http://bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/threads/54089-Building-The-Magnetic-Clock?highlight=Magnetic%20Clock Here are a couple of pictures to get you interested. As the build continues I will post updates here as well as on the Home Shop Machinist site. If you would like to download all the DXF files for the clock they can be found at: http://www.digitalmachinist.net/downloads They are under the Spring and Summer 2012 issues. Download the BYE files. If you have never seen the Digital Machinist Magazine, while you are there click on the "Get A Free Issue" on the top right of the page. A really very fine magazine full of stuff for machinists. As always, comments and questions always welcomed, George |
