Just an idea I'm playing with Do you want something like these, or give me the sizes you want and I'll cut them, or as near as I can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge911 Posted December 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) Yep they look spot on m8 ... The clock mechanisms are due today /tomorrow I'll measure the length of the shaft for the thicknesses I need once they arrive Edited December 2, 2019 by hodge911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge911 Posted December 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 The shaft of the mechanisms are 18mm long ... I understand it will be very difficult to cut them that thin so if I say 25-28mm thick and I can recess the back about 10mm to sink the mechanisms in . As for dia a few different ones would be good Cheers Hodge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
