Eric:

  Sorry for the lack of drawings for that. Here is an overview drawing with all the pieces I used.
Ive put them in 3 formats, but as I use vectric for my dxf's, I have no easy way to give you a way to
print them out.. Let me know how you make out with these one..

Thanks Art,
  The svg file will allow me to trace parts on my monitor if nothing else, so that makes me happy. Doesn't want to print all the tiles for some reason...I get 4 pages 2 blank and 2 partial of the scimitar shape.
  I shall pursue it further, but as I said....I'm not unhappy about tracing them out. I plan on making one or two for Christmas gifts.

Are the tiles 1 to 1 ? I realize shaft holes and such will be up to me...but will all the pieces fit as displayed in the svg file?

If I get printing sorted, I'll be sure to post the solution. I'm sure there are lots of folks looking for the same thing I am.

Thanks again,

Eric

Eric:

  In theory it should all be 1:1..

  I did a deep search and found my original project file for the gears and
escapement. I include them here as in Gearotic you can tell it to print them
at 1:1 , so at least  the important parts are correct.

  These gears are such arte the most important part, the rest is easily modified as to
size in order to fit these..

  Hopefully, this will help some...
