Hello
I like to present here again one of my conversion or DIY projects.
Today it is a very small 400 Day Clock based on a Haller miniature movement.
Essentially, I wanted to build the whole clock as small as possible ( the height)
but with a reasonable Expenditure.
An important thing to me was, that it still would be running for 400 days.
After the clock had fulfilled this condition in a test setup, I have
begun to build it visually as close as possible to the appearance of a well-known
torsion pendulum clock.
Now here's the result.
The clock has a maximum height of only 83mm !!!
How small is in reality, can be seen in comparison with the Becker ball pendulum,
or if it stands next to a "normal-sized" clock, or on my hand.
See the photos "MiniaturUhr 01, 02 and 03".
Photo 04 shows the clock from all sides and Photo 05 some construction details.
The photos were partially made during the construction and test phase.
In the photo 06 the clock stands on a glass base and the same clock on a brass base.
(Both are nothing more than inverted coaster.)
The photo "Originalgröße" allows to print the clock in it's actual size.
At this point, I very interested in whether someone knows a clock in
similar size, or even smaller than mine.
