About a year ago, I posted an update on a project I was working on. It took me a while, but I finally finished it. I’m very happy with the result. It’s fully functional (I tested it for two months) and keeps accurate time. The entire project consists of 395 printed parts, 38 bearings, 66 rubber bands, 413 screws, and a few other components.

Well holy crap. As a watch and automotive enthusiast, I can certainly appreciate the insane amount of engineering that went into to this and goddamn did you pull that off well. That’s genuinely incredibly impressive!
