This - or imagine what mechanics and designs could be possible if we combined an idea like this clock with modern methods like you mentioned them. Each gear could be embellished with elaborate designs that would be too time consuming to create manually for example.
- xyzzy123 5y agoFor me the interesting parts of the (kinda hate this term) "maker revolution" are share-ability and remixability. The community and sharing sites are an integral part of this. So you can have lots of people who've never met quickly iterate on a design. Then yet other people customise or use it in unexpected ways. The end result would be not a clock, but a species of mutant clocks spreading across the world.
