    Default Arc of pendulum swing

    Is there a swing distance or arc measured in degree's, that is considered optimal for a pendulum to swing?
    I am designing a wooden clock with a gravity esc. and the design is not the same as I have done in the past when using a crutch to link the pendulum to the escapment.
    Thanks in advance...

    cheers

    Yeh...well I guess another way of asking the question could be...

    Is is considered more accurate to have a small swing or a large swing?

    cheers
