It's in the works, I've never seen one before. Completely made from cigar boxes. Gonna take a good amount of time and hitting the antique shops for the internals, but it's gonna be a fun project. I'll keep ya'all updated. The first step is going to take the longest amount of time, so be patient. I want to try to stay away from as much "new" stuff as possible....even stuff as small as nails or screws, I want old materials that I can bring back to life. Going to be AWESOME possum!!! 🍺

OK, "advanced reply" button not working in my browser, so no clapping thingy.

I may have some old nails or similar from the back of my garage-some of Grandfather-in-law's stuff still back there. He was a mechanic/tinkerer and used the garage starting in 1965. Still find some OLD stuff cleaning it out every now and then.

That is VERY cool. Not what I'm wanting to make, but very cool. I'm just wanting to make the clock with all of the internals from an old gravity clock.
