My First Escapement 

RU-vid recommendations are very strange. I didn’t searched for this.

looks great! just building my own out of plexyglass, been watching your video over and over, your machine looks great

You have done a great job.

Glad this was of use to you. Hope your project has gone well.

After 10 years, this was in my recommendation.

Juppppí! Beatiful! Thank you very much!

great work mate! keep it up

Very simple! Im getting ready to try to build my first escapement device.. we'll see how it goes!

This is cool!

Glad you liked it. Yes, just change the length OR the weight of the pendulum.

nice little mechanism. but I had to comment as we have the same name, I am J E Johnson too.

good job..i need a plans about wooden cloks

I have seen all your wonderful cardboard escapements; I like them, but I have 2 remarks: 1. I think in all cases the pulling weight is too large. This causes hard collisions between the anchor and the scapewheel, and disturbance of the harmonic motion of the pendulum; there should be some visible recoil to approach the natural turning points of the pendulum more closely. 2. There was some discussion on the dependence of the frequency on the mass of the pendulum bob (contnd)

Well done man! I feel like a caveman!

Hello Friend Greetings I was wondering if you have templates this exhaust system as I am finishing a clock and no exhaust system to run me , I quite appreciate as my project can finish I await your response and thank you very much

Thanks. How goes progress on your own first escapement?

how long does it last?

The weight? how does that affect the frequency of it, it doesn't on just a swinging pendulum.

Thanks!

Nothing wrong with that!

Bacana teu projeto. Parece ser trabalhoso achar os pontos de equilíbrio deste dispositivo. Gostaria de ver teu projeto por inteiro.

great !

Okay, that's nice

nice pendulum

We are everywhere!

I like it

that's cool

ha ha that is funny "gravity, a renewable resource." I must use that line someday. Hey, if I make something like this and change the length of the pendulum, can I change the ticking rate? Like a metronome? thanks

First ... ??? I'm looking for a pratical scape a lot of time ... Here I founded it... Congratultions...

(contnd) Because the pendulum rod is not without mass, the centre of mass of the whole pendulum lies above the bob. Increasing the bob's weight will lower the centre of mass, and thus lower the frequency (I don't think this is new to you). Best wishes, Ben van de Waal

👏👏👏

Neat

i think it affects the natural frequency

The Best is off.....Adjust it

We were all cavemen once!

and the result is here... f8m37gn-ZYI
