I 3d printed a fully mechanical clock on my DIY 3d printer. Got it working this evening. :) I learnt a lot, but now to make it better!

I would have liked to fit all the clock inside the picture. But I only used my 50 mm lens and there was plenty of glints on the display case. That was hard!
J'aurais bien aimé tout faire rentrer dans le cadre, mais au 50 mm et avec tous les reflets sur la vitre, c'était difficile...

So far the brief/analysis/specification pages are produced in much the same way as ever. The radical shift is in the generation of ideas approach. Here we borrowed an idea outlined in Kurt Rowland's 1968 book "The Shapes We Need". Amongst other things Rowland explores spatial relationships and really gets to the heart of aesthetics and visual beauty. Some things just look right and others don't. Why is this? Rowland seems to have a some good theories about this. This book was part of a series he released in the late 60's. I understand these textbooks were standard issue in Glasgow Secondary Schools Art Departments at the time. I don't know of any art teachers that used them much apart from my mother. Anyway this little card based exercise suited our purposes perfectly.
The current S2 course has seeen alot of changes over the last five years. We'll distribute the cours notes on the S2 Course page at: designandtechnologydepartment.co.uk in due course.

Close up of the workings.
The Porthmadog town hall is located at the Maritime museum in Porthmadog, the trustees of the museum need to have the clock removed from there as they wish to have the room to display more exhibitions.
The town council I have been told have been told about this but are not interested.
It is a shame that it can`t be put together again
The clock was presented by Francis William Alexander Roche grandson of William Alexander Madocks during it`s construction in 1846
My thanks goes to the attendant at the museum for letting me view the clock
After an earlier shower, the puddle provided a nice reflection of the clock at the entrance of Bang Sue Grand Station
Paper clock created from two simple pieces of chipboard and a clock face. The fin locks into the base of the body to make it stand.
This clock, which I purchased from a local flea-market years ago, chimes every once-in-a-while - EVEN THOUGH IT HASN'T BEEN WOUND!!

At the south end of the upper level, a bronze statue named The Meeting Place stands beneath the station clock. Designed by British artist Paul Day, it is intended to evoke the romance of travel through the depiction of a couple locked in an amorous embrace.
A trip up to near the Canadian border to collect some trees for our garden lead me to Fairhaven on my way back for lunch. A nice little touristy place south of Bellingham. It had a clock....
