It's a thing of beauty Brian. I like the look of the cycloidal tooth profile. It's very...clock like.

Next job is to get the motion work set up, first the gears are put on the depthing tool, to get them running at the same centres, this measurement will be transferd to the front plate, to place the min wheel stud.
The --minute wheel pipe -- hour wheel pipe --and hour wheel collet all run co axial on the stud.

Whilst I don't really know what I am looking at in many of these posts, I'm enjoying the thread and looking forward to see the finished product. Then I may be able to figure it out?
Nice work Brian.
