Colin Clocks Downloads

The designs were originally taken from a site called Gary's Clocks, who's website is now up and running again after many years.

I've converted the original dxf files from inches to mm and modified the drawings slightly; mainly just adding ball-race bearing etc. As the original designs were kindly made available to the public domain by Gary, I have also made my modifications available on the download page according to the Creative Common Licence Attribution-ShareAlike so others can freely use, improve and republish too.

I have also included all my CNC Gcode files (note that these are also in mm's) assuming you are using a 2mm cutter. This should save you all the trouble of converting them yourself. The stock material was 8 mm ply so take care when cutting your depth. The Gcode files can easily be edited with LazyCam or Mach3 to decrease or increase the cutting depth as required. The files and designs are available as-is i.e. with warts and all. I will be updating these as soon as I have some time to start working on this project again, so ensure you subscribe to the download page to be informed of any changes. Don't forget my clock is still unfinished - so don't rely on the design that I made without checking them first.

there are many video available from others who have made this clock too:
