Thread: Problem with design

tonight i was drawing this clock up ,and struck a problem

the grasshopper is too low , the small ?flip flop wheel? will hit the main escapement wheel (in blue ) ,

has anyone had any experience with "gearotic" escapement , i basically imported it into CAD with the hole spacing's from gearotic 's plating files

only the minute cogs are drawn so far but the hour cogs will be identical , the hands will point in the opposite direction , and i will have to add counter weight to the hands

i went with a 61:1 gear ratio's of , 2:1 (60/30tooth) , 2.5:1 (50/20tooth) , 2:1 (60/30tooth) , 6.1:1 (183/30tooth)

the escarpment wheel is a 60tooth and was going to use a 1 second pendulum , so i can just mark the escarpment wheel for seconds hand

so if anyone had made a grasshopper off gearotic designs , i would be very grateful to know how much higher you had to mount the grasshopper above the plans height
and if any one knows any double pendulum designs )
