Club Footed Clock

I've cut several club footed designs using Vexx, but this if the first one I've applied to a time train.

The wood is a souvenir from an trip we made to Mexico (the wood is actually from Brazil or Argentina) anyway I liked the look of it and though of using is for a skeleton clock frame.

The "clock" has no running train as of yet so its more of a kinetic sculpture.  The escapement was an absolute dream as it started ticking with no muss of fuss.

Thanks so much for getting the club foot into the program.

The code was done in Aspire by importing a dxf of the escapement gear from Vexx and the spokes from Gearotic.
