A clock powered by a № 1 clockwork motor from a 1960s issue of Meccano Magazine. It does not work.

Hello Brian,
Nice to see an attempt at a very difficult model. I have in the past had several attempts at this model and all have resulted in failure.
One clock I built ran for two hours. If you’d like help from me on some of the issues with the model, I shall be delighted to help.

Hi Brian,
Yes, any ideas on it? The magazine does not say how to orient the angle brackets on the escapement and perhaps the 1:16 ratio makes it too powerless.
