Clock hand

[Ren? Olivier]

Hello
I do a drawing of my first wooden clock and could you tell me why when I added the minute and hour hand both turns at the same speed
Thanks

Hi Rene:

  The pointers for hour and minute connect to the shafts the gears are on. ( That will change soon ). The problem is probably that the system asked you if you wished to use the same shaft for the two gears ( Hour and minute gears.). While its true that they can share a shaft, the program should actually be told to use a separate shaft, the visual is the same on the screen, but it means you can attach a minute hand to the minute gears shaft, and the hour hand to the hour hands shaft. I suspect you have only one shaft with both gears on it, it makes the
hour and minute hands run the same speed.
  In future the pointers will be placed on a gear's shaft, and their rotation will reflect the gear they were placed on rather than the shaft ( which in your case is shared.).

So sorry for the hassle, thi will be fixed, but meanwhile if asked "A shaft has been found which is close, use it? " , answer no, and a separate shaft name will be generated solely to place a pointer on..
