What's Next For Clickspring?

Clickspring

Mainly because of its place in the engineering technology tree - from the workshop tradition that made the AM, came virtually everything else - Cheers :)

Gday Chris, just wondering what turned you to make the Antikythera? Some of youtube I watch on my xbox but cant give thumbs up so now @ my comp, have just gave you loads :) Best regards G.

Hey Charles,its a long project, with a lot of twists and turns expected so I'm holding off on publishing plans/bill of materials etc until completion. It will be a lot more fun for you to build after I've ironed out all of the wrinkles and figured out the best way to make the more challenging components. Cheers :)

Charles Morrill

Hi Chris, I'm completely on board for this one. Any chance you might consider a patreon list of materials and tools needed? It will take me a while to get it all together and I really want to follow you step by step!

Hey Josh I am building a faithful replica based on the latest data, including the speculated planetarium - it will be a build very much focused on the details. Great to have you on board mate :)

Hey Chris! I always dreamed of making this device and I decided to become come on-board to give you support... The triangle teeth are going to put lots of "slop" into the mechanism. I hope you are at least updating the movement.I hope the full 5 planet orrey is also being put on the front.

Cheers Craig, great to have you on board - The prototype and research work I have been doing as prep for this project has revealed some truly remarkable engineering details from the original - can't wait to share and get everyone analyzing the detail :)

I joined for this project, the clock was fascinating but this I'm sure will make that look pale in comparison :)

I can't even tell you how excited I am for this project.

Paul Grodt

BRILLIANT. Absolutely brilliant. You are gonna win the geeky side of the Internet with this one. I'm not usually a fan of surprises, but this one was worth the suspense. Genuine awe; I cannot wait.

Steve E.

Amazing. Brilliant idea. Your work is amazing, can't wait for 2017!

Very ambitious--buy I'll bet you can pull it off.

Paul Busby

Awesome. I remeber watching the BBC show on this years ago and thinking how cool it would be to build or see a working one :)

Brandon Fayer

WOW, so exited!

Mike Michelizzi

Hahaha you're a madman! I can't wait to see this!

SCOTT SWAALEY

Yeeessssss! I am so excited, great choice!

Tom Colson

In wondering "What could Chris possibly do to meet the expectations he created with the clock build?" I never dared hope for something like this. A study of the AM from the view of MAKING one??? Irresistible in every way...and beyond worthy of our support!

Richard Thompson

WooHoo!!!! This is going to be AWESOME!

Chris, you just made the perfect choice, i can't imagine anyone else doing it ! i'm looking forward to see the first video ! ;)

Samuel Irons

Okay everyone, who is going to make their own along with Chris?

James Holbrook

Outstanding!!! Such a cool piece of history.

Aaron Caviness

Omg Chris! Always been fascinated by this artifact, cant believe your going to be doing this! This is epic truly epic! Museum worthy bud.

it was either that perfecting Harrisons 3rd sea clock i guess...

John Creasey

I wet myself a little bit.

Always surpassing any expectations we may have Chris! What a teaser trailer! Much excites!! :-O

I am so excited for this!!!

AM de Jager

Can't wait for this! I wondered how you were going to top the clock build and I reckon you chose something capable of doing that :)

John Chadwell

Dooooooood!!!!! Somebody has gone ANCIENT!

Damien Miller

Wow. That's quite ambitious - can't wait.

Omg I'm more excited than I should be... CANNOT WAIT!!!

My Growth Rings

Oh, and the 2017 Patron Series project looks phenomenal as well. To paraphrase Jack Nicholson as the Joker: "Where do you gut the ideas for these wonderful toys?"

My Growth Rings

Very cool project and trailer, Chris. Well done. Scott

Brandon C. (Keronin)

Chris, this is gonna be amazing! I'm so excited!

Fred Zyda

Wow, that is ambitious and awesome. I can't wait to see this project unfold!

Martel DuVigneaud

Chris, awesome! I am very much looking forward to this project. :D

Gear up folks. According to my calculations this is gonna' be a good one!

Whoooo! I watched a doco on this a year or so ago and was thinking "this would be right up the Clickspring alley"!

Conrad Teves

I let out a large-ish "squeeee" when I realized what you were going to do. Epic, epic, epic.

Doug Sullivan

Waiting with bated breath. Just got to start the clock first :-D

If anybody can do it justice...you can. Its been proven. You have what it takes, and I can say I knew about you before this makes you famous.

This looks awesome! Great choice for the next project!

Andrew

Welp, I'm thoroughly erect now.
