    That has to be the simplest lock-pin for an indexing wheel I've ever seen!

    Jig noted and mentally pinched.
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Nice jiggery, nine. As simple as it has to be, but no simpler. I like the sliding dovetail and lever actuator. Have a greenie
    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

    Now I was at the rocks in Sydney two weeks ago, and next to the $14000 a pair dining room chairs was a wooden clock. It was in a glass case 1200 high 500 wide 300 deep, with wooden gears, but smaller teeth on gears, with an offset pendulum o a linkage to the mechanism. Looked very nice - $8,500 I think.
    Your clock is also very well done, along with the jig, no indexing head and miller involved. Congratulations - well done. With the amount of work that is obviously there, it should be an heirloom to be remembered by!
