@chinbeard You just made my day Bill!

In this house we make popcorn for new @clickspring1 videos.

@kchaykin Outstanding design

Konstantin Chaykin’s Lunokhod Prime watch, in titanium case inspired by the Soviet lunar rover, merges circular & barrel shapes. It features a 3D moon phase plus separate day/night hour scales with miniature sun/moon markers and a sector minute hand.

Shiny jewels...

@shabatu33 @nytimes Thank you, very much appreciated :)

A well written article from the @nytimes discussing the recent replication of our 2020 finding that the front dial calendar ring of the #Antikythera mechanism is most likely to be a 354-day lunar calendar: nytimes.com/2024/07/05/sci… (paywall)

A fun article on the recent replication of our finding

The first episode of the series on constructing the second oldest geared mechanism on the historical record, The Byzantine Sundial-Calendar, is now out on YT - do please enjoy!

@m3sca1 @clockandwatchuk The data show the holes are in fact exceptionally well placed - Cheers :)

How many holes were there in the calendar ring of the #Antikythera mechanism? New studies published in the peer reviewed Horological Journal @clockandwatchuk from Woan & Bayley bit.ly/3W25FZN and separately, Malin & Dickens bit.ly/3XDbjTl find 354 most likely.

@Aeroengineer1 @makingtolearn Thanks mate, appreciate the share :)

@clickspring1 @makingtolearn They are always great videos. I just shared the latest video with a friend and recommended he get caught up on your channel!

For those who may have missed it, I have a new one out on YT, be sure to check it out - an investigation of the files, reamers & saws of the ancient world #antikytheramechanism #antikythera

What can a single #Antikythera mechanism component tell us about the cutting tools of the day? Time for a deep dive, head over to YT and enjoy! #antikytheramechanism

@testedcom Wow this was awesome work, Bill.
