What it is?
The time has come! For years, we've been hearing the same question again and again from our loyal customers: "Can Ugears create a working clock model kit, one that actually keeps accurate time?" A working mechanical wooden clock has long been our #1 "most-requested" new design. Your dream has also been our dream, and our team of dedicated Ugears engineers and designers has been working hard to bring this shared dream into reality. Finally, the wait is over. Ugears is proud to present the Aero Clock, a fully functioning DIY wall clock with a pendulum. The Aero Clock isn't just a 3D wooden mechanical model or a pretty showpiece. The Ugears pendulum clock model is an actual working clock that you can build yourself, mount to a wall, wind up, then watch as the seconds, minutes, and hours tick by. The Aero Clock is an ingenious puzzle and DIY clock mechanism, unlike any other clock. It is a lovely piece of precise engineering that reveals the workings of a weighted pendulum clock to builders and viewers alike. Like all Ugears models, it also has that extra touch of whimsy, to captivate and charm our growing legion of fans.
Key Benefits
- No Glue Connection: Assembling without glue and chemicals.
- Self Assembly: Details are already cut and ready to assemble.
- Mechanical: The models produce motion.
- Educational: Perfect for family projects through hands-on STEM learning.
- Driven by the force of gravity pulling down a weighted bag (you can fill the bag with sand or salt).
- Features an adjustable weighted pendulum that interacts with the escape wheel through the steady tick-tock of the anchor mechanism.
- You can adjust the clock's ticking action to the second, by sliding the pendulum's top and bottom weights.
- time is not read with rotating hands on a clock face, but rather a fixed pointer indicates time on the slowly-rotating, numbered hour and minute discs.
- Features a model hot air balloon. The suspended balloon rapidly descends when the hour strikes, then slowly rises again over the course of the next hour.
- The Ugears' Aero Clock with a pendulum is a marvelous puzzle and the perfect family project.
