Brian Law's Clock No. 24 - Gravity Escapement
Posted: Thu May 05, 2016 10:23 pm
As promised on another discussion thread, here is a photo of my Brian Law Clock No. 24. I built this clock because I was fascinated with the gravity escapement, a real pleasure to watch! It runs on 6 lbs. weight and is wound twice daily. It is not a beginner project and really requires an engine lathe to make components according to plan. If I make another one, I would modify the shaft sizes to 1/8" and forget about turning 1/4" shafts to 1/16" at the bearing sites. So far, it's a real good running clock.
