That must be the moon crown gear from fragment C. Looking forward to that bit.

Kenneth Donald Fugate

It's half of a tiny Hirth joint

Stubbs

We just watched the last Indiana Jones movie the other night and I was thinking about all the work you’ve done and how it looked nothing like the prop in the movie!

Grant Hullinger

Thank you for the update, Chris. I am happy to wait patiently to witness your excellent craftsmanship.

Jose Martinez

I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us, Chris. Your work is always out of this world amazing.

Doug L

Fantastic to hear this news Chris. knowing your attention to detail...as well as seeing things through, have you manged to get to a stage where you are able to contribute thoughts on un-recovered parts of the mechanism ? I ask because you have a unique set of skills to contribute to furthering knowledge of this remarkable piece of history

Clickspring

If I could do more (and work faster) believe me I would - Cheers :)

Clickspring

Ah that would be fun!

Dilapidus

You know... that Chris is on to something. Rough cuts.. teasers (like this post was) and the like are very nice for curbing the thirst and would be rather especially cool if they only happened here. I suspect your process would be only the tiniest bit interrupted by such rough, quick posts. But I know nothing of your process, cares or concerns, only what I wish for, which is more more more! Do or do not.. I'm never leaving.

Now there's a thought ... Change the name of the Discord channel to Clickspring's Nerf Herders or Clickspring's Yak Shavers

Cheers Chris :)

Clickspring

Thank you Sam, I appreciate it :)

Clickspring

Yes the paper was peer reviewed, was an interesting process! You can read it here: https://bhi.co.uk/antikytheramechanism/ - Cheers :)

Clickspring

Yes, working hard to make it so - Cheers :)

Chris

Great to hear that work is still progressing! I love your videos, but also miss the frequency you posted with during your clock build a few years ago. Please show and document the things as you can - and there's no problem with including a disclaimer in the video that some information may be imperfect, so viewers should look for corrections or updates in the video description. Because "perfect is the enemy of good", and even published peer-reviewed research is subject to imperfection (if it wasn't, then there would be far less need for follow-up research!). Sometimes it's better to be 98% right with 2% correction, than to hold out for 100% accuracy.

You are practically the definition of quality over quantity, and if we didn't want that, we wouldn't be here. Keep up the good work

veritanuda

Awesome. Been going over the build recently and wondering how your research paper turned out. Was it peer reviewed. Were there any corrections or feedback ?

Oskar Boëthius Lissheim

Exciting! Maybe one of the videos early as a Christmas present…? 🤩🎄

Gregor Shapiro

What are the theories as to missing components that would be required to get the mechanism to display the supposed lunar calendars (in accordance to the assumed hole spacing measured)?

Sam Bishop

Always glad to see updates from you, mate. As the comments clearly show, we’re here for the duration regardless. It doesn’t matter how long these things take or how many tangents arise etc. We all love your work and are happy to support it, full stop. We’re definitely excited to see what you’ve been up to. I hope you and yours are well & you’re really enjoying this project.

“Who’s scruffy lookin’?” - Han Solo. Now you have to do it Chris, just so you can sell a Nerf Herder set. 😆

sztojanov

oh my god, cant wait :)

David R8

To say I'm waiting for the videos with bated breath would be an understatement!

Stubbs

Hi mate, please, pretty please, upload the videos before you time travel back to archimedes to show him the antikythera 🤭

Dilapidus

Sounds great! So what? Tomorrow?

Duncan Luddite

Whoo Hooo! This sounds brilliant! You keep getting better and better Chris :) Looking forward to the new files.

Ron Gafron

I'm sure that whatever you put together for us is going to be amazing, because everything else you've done has been amazing. :-)

Jeff Armstrong

You've been suggesting you were headed this way for some months now. Perhaps you could add "Genuine Clickspring made files" to your merch! :)

Gert Sønderby

This is and has been an amazing journey of discovery, and those never quite go to plan, do they? Whatever else, I'm along for the duration. I'm fascinated!

Stefan

I can only second what others already have said - I can't wait to see those 4 videos!

Chris Muncy

Chris, I think that I can say this for the rest, that we are proud to support you on this journey of yours and reap the benefits of the fantastic videos that you provide in return.
