    I went slow on the tube cut because:
    Part stuck out of the vice a long way
    Tube thin and may resonate
    That aluminium grade likes to chip weld

    Strangely enough I actually found it while looking for software to design HTD5 pulleys a few years back. Then I discovered it was designed to provide all the tools you need to design a wooden clock and decided to try one as a good project for my new and very flakey wooden-framed CNC router and was hooked. I have since designed a couple of quartz/GPS-locked, all wooden gears, electrically driven pendulum clocks, one of which has a working prototype, and have plans for constructing some other designs once I finally get a bandsaw and a stock of suitable hardwoods later this month. Be warned, this software can lead to a serious addiction!

    I can't remember if I linked to it before, but this link is to the GPS-locked prototype.

    Not the perfect throttle solution but it should work.

    One more video should finish this thing. And doing the finishing work of course!
