Beautiful and helpful as I am about to make my 1st clock. Question- how did you account for the clay shrinkage with the center hole? Just eyeballed to make it a little bigger? Or calculated? Thx!
Thanks a lot, I'm happy to hear that. It wasn't calculated, but if you have seen in the video, I had a small metal tube that was the same size as the clock engine, and I made the hole with it, and when the work was dry and before the first kiln, I checked the size of the hole and made it a little bigger so that no problem would occur in the end.
