Time-nuts
I appreciate the comments regarding horological obsession. Mine started with a desire for an accurate master
oscillator for my ham shack (built and use a couple Shera GPSDO's) and has blossomed into a much broader interest
in time (Ex tempus, sapientia?)
This has led me to a silly quest. I'd like to use a traditional clock face and hands as an output device for a
1PPS signal from my GPSDO.
I know this is a very broad question, but does anyone have advice on where I might start hacking (or making) a
mechanical clock face to accomplish this? Is there a simple clock design that I could start with to build my own?
Maybe replacing a pendulum or escapement with a solenoid? Any examples to work from?
