Part 1. Introduction

Contact for more details: https://wa.me/message/UM7HIWIUUNGDE1 This video, "Part 1: The Master Plan," kicks off our exciting journey to build a real working mechanical clock! In this first step, we lay out the entire engineering roadmap—from understanding motor speeds to the final assembly. 🗓️ Our Roadmap to the Mechanical Clock Building a clock is like solving a giant puzzle, and every puzzle needs a plan! In this video, we walk through the four essential steps: Measure Motor RPM: We start by finding out exactly how fast our motor is spinning. Calculate Clock Hand RPM: How many times do the second, minute, and hour hands need to rotate? The Gear Ratio Secret: We learn how to use different gear sizes (like a 60g and 20g combo) to change speed and timing. Finally, Just Do It! Bringing all the math and mechanics together to start the build. 🔍 What You’ll Learn This introduction sets the stage for the "Untold Mechanics" of time. You’ll see how we use the ESP32 Boffin Board and BLIX gears to turn a simple motor into a precision timepiece. Watch this first to understand the "Why" and "How" before we dive into the deep-dive coding and construction in the next parts!
