@@Flower-3D 😁 👍 …thanks to his video I also noticed you have made some nice improvements to the design. I’ve already printed an older version a couple of weeks back. I might re-print it.
I have no idea why but my tolerances are WAY too tight when printing this on either of my P1S printers. The print quality is great but nothing fits. Printing using .2 factory bambu settings with .4 nozzle and 100% infill. Polymaker PLA. (I have thousands of hours printing on them and this is the only model I have run into these issues... NOT SAYING ITS A MODEL ISSUE... Its obviously not. I just cant figure it out). Love your work. Any insight on why I may be running into this issue would be appreciated.
My springs came from Amazon, I just typed in 4x50mm coil springs. I originally had an Amazon link, but they seemed to have sold out. The rubber bands were from a variety pack from a local convenience store. But, the new push action has additional pegs so you can substitute a rubber band for the coil springs.
Hey, yes! I definitely still plan on it, I just got distracted with the 7-segment stuff recently. But really I just have one final full assembly test to do
Haha so, I just discovered that video this morning. To answer your question, yeah, it is kind of surreal! I've been watching his channel for years and never imagined my content reaching him!
It doesn't. But, since almost all of the components are the thickness of a shell or less, I think it makes sense to do everything at 100%. The amount of infill that would actually be printed is minimal.
That will look amazing with a clear shell. I take it the clock ones will have their IO in a chainable form? (Automatic button pusher on the left, button on the right, I wonder how many you could chain before the torque gives in

This is so very nerdy cool! I just abandoned my Prusa i3 mk3s+ a few weeks ago and got myself an A1 mini and 1,5 weeks later an X1 Carbon from Bambu Lab and am *SO* happy with them! I downloaded the "all parts" 3mf file and opened it in BambuStudio and saw that you set the "Sparse Infill" parameter value to a very unconventional value of 100% which I haven't seen or used ever. I assume there's a very good reason for this and I shouldn't change it, right? 😳
I don't know how difficult it would be to redesign the back, but it would cool if you added a lever that would allow you to switch between counting up and counting down.
Update: I have successfully built the head that is updated to this version. The only thing now to put in is the second snail wheel and the minute and hour hands plus some chains and some other stuff.

This looks like a really nice design. My daughter wants me to print it for her. Have you considered making the 2 cams so they are built around a unique central shaft so parts cannot be mixed? Similarly, you could have a different sized posts on the Seg Plate so it's not possible to get them mixed up.
Thank you, so glad you like it! I think those are great suggestions, it totally makes sense to add a feature to prevent incorrect stacking of the cams.
This is a huge improvement over the prior version. Really, really nice job. The only issue I've had is the rubber band slipping off the D-segment after some use. The tiniest drop of superglue where the rubber band meets the part solved it.
I have a 60% version I've created, there is just one snag I'm trying to overcome before I post the files! A few of the files have been redesigned/scaled to eliminate clearance issues that you'd have if you just scaled down the full version.
@@Flower-3D AMAZING! 👌🏻 Thank you for your contributions. Make sure there's a way to donate because I know how much effort goes in these sort of things!
It's not just that you designed something and let it loose for anybody to print it, it's that you've been improving it to the point where it becomes very useful and a case to study when one wants to learn about 3D printing mechanics. Thank you very much for your contribution! Once I get it done I'll upload it to my Instagram with full attribution
have you considered offsetting some of the transitions in the cams? e.g. when going from "0" to "1", four segments need to change at once maybe it would be smoother to change one or two at a time? though maybe it wouldn't look as good
Hey, this is great! V3 is awesome and thank you for the hard work!! I'm having trouble locating rubber bands of the listed dimensions (2x60, 2x100mm) since standard rubber bands seem to be 1.5 and 3mm thick. Do you by chance know the # of the bands you used?
