Hi all, I’m reaching out to the community to help with the design of a hex clock.
I’m honestly very lost on where to start. My current plan is to buy some gears and make a large monstrosity which is unlikely to fit on a wall. Does anyone have a more elegant suggestion?
It’s following the general design of a clock with two main differences:
- There are 256 seconds in the second hands rotation.
- There are 4 hands, the 4th of which measures ~136 years in a rotation.
I’d go with a flip clock so when we get to that day in 2038, the numbers just all flip back to 0
It also has the benefit of being mechanically easier to build haha
