I have a question; in your project does the animation move the minute and hour hands properly? Or another way to pose the question, can gears, i.e., the hour wheel, be placed on a co-axial but independent axis?

Hi Al,
The hour wheel IS placed on a co-axial and independent axis ...

Wonderful upgrade Art.

Just a small request:

The teeth on the escapement gear are very thin which works well for brass gears but not so well for wooden ones.
There is a lot of clearance ahead of the leading edge of each escapement tooth; is it possible to fill this in with extra tooth thickness ...
