Rumour has it that Switzerland put a price on his head.

[@glenralph5123]

Almost wet myself. Best comment ever!

[@klownskull702]

You mean Japan?

[@alexbohatch3503]

KZbin Smart same difference

[@kurumi394]

@@klownskull702 Japan specialises in Quartz movement clocks. For mechanical clocks you need to look for them in Switzerland.

[@klownskull702]

@@kurumi394 thank you I didn't know the difference. I just know they make watches.

[@drewh0208]

I wish that more people could understand and appreciate the sheer quantity and quality of effort, practice, and concentration that went into making all of this.

[@Clickspring]

Thank you Drew, very kind of you :)

[@IanCaine4728]

I love how after ALL that, the lingering shot on the finished piece is about 10 seconds. All about the process.

[@banzaiib]

You could do a 12 minute video of that clock just running with the camera slowly moving around it and you'd get 100k viewers...

[@AcrimoniousMirth]

Sooo our entire family sat and watched that while sipping tea. Our next challenge: set up a live feed of the clock against a nice background. Also, my mum wants to know what your kitchen is like! She thinks your knives will be immaculately sharpened and everything neatly laid out.

[@matlarr13579]

Best channel on KZbin, your video quality is just outstanding

[@thehollows]

Agreed!

[@rileyalexander5372]

matlarr13579 totally agree. every time a video has been posted I've stopped doing what I'm doing to watch it. can't wait for the next project he does

[@PixelSchnitzel]

Without a doubt. Video production quality and craftsmanship -- both head & shoulders above all others.

[@sithompson74]

Pixel Schnitzel couldn't agree more. Everything from the camera work, editing and voice over to the total incredible, master, craftsmanship has been an absolute joy

[@Cyruscosmo]

I second that, The video, sound and voice over quality is superb! You should to make at least one video on how to make videos!

[@Rubbernecker]

Damn. I hope you sold that for $75k. Absolutely stunning.

[@shawnlund]

Not many people can say they accomplished something so beautiful and technical with so much dedication and skill.

[@Masocisa]

Well then... The best series on KZbin has come to an end, can't wait for the next one

[@zanpekosak2383]

Masocisa7538 The antyhtera is kinda boring.

[@i3lack0ut]

You should do a close up video on how exactly the clock works. I feel like we haven't been able to enjoy the finished project enough

[@elh3809]

schade das es menschen wie dich nur einmal gibt auf diesem planeten.

[@INTERVENTIONplayer99]

I dont even give a fuck about clocks are this kind of craftsmanship but my god was it satisfying to watch and i enjoyed every second

[@hadrienberthet2575]

KZbin awards of the most beautiful creation, winner: ClickSpring!

[@leocelente]

we need a 1 hour long video of it running

[@AnthHalliday]

I was thinking exactly that.

[@intjonmiller]

Leonardo Celente 12 hours, so we can put it on an indefinite loop. I would set up a dedicated tablet to show it 24 hours a day in my home. Closest I'll ever get to owning a bit of craftsmanship this incredible. :)

[@MegaMetinMetin]

Leonardo Celente donate sone money before you think u call the shots

[@intjonmiller]

MegaMetinMetin He didn't say he called the shots. Nothing even remotely like that. Get a grip.

[@pseudosam2458]

Yeah I really want to see it running for more than a few seconds.

[@robertnicholson7733]

Every once and a while I just sit back and watch this video. I can relax while mesmerized by all that gleaming brass and blued steel. But also the planning, the technique, the clarity of purpose - no stoke out of place, each tool exactly what is required for the task - even if it has to be made, and each tool in perfect order - each file clean and keen. And at the end, a beautiful example of workmanship in a wonderfully clean workshop. The only problem, it is Chris in the video and not me. 😀

[@billbright1755]

Like clock work. A chronological masterpiece.

[@VikasVJois]

Your finished parts look so flawless that they look like 3D renders!

[@bucky13]

Well time to watch this entire series again.

[@3ATIVE]

Well, where to start... I found your channel after seeing the Card Press you made. After binge watching 'The Antikythera Mechanism', I followed with this Clock build playlist. I was blown away at every stage. Your skill, knowledge and talent are breath-taking. Every single component you've made here is a true work of art in its own right... you must be so proud. On top of that, the presentation style, editing and sound effects do so enhance the production. - Thank you for sharing and may you continue to produce such masterpieces.

[@gordon6029]

Thanks for this video. You know, my wife knits. She knits amazing things. People keep telling her to knit for profit. They just don’t get it. She would have to charge $1000 a sweater just to make minimum wage. This clock is amazing, I would love to build one. Would be so cool if you could support yourself making these beautiful creations but I just don’t think it is possible in this day and age. Again, waiting for a video going through the tools you have.

[@5RustyBin]

Quite possibly one of the most beautiful things I ever set eyes on. Stunning.

[@Xenro66]

This just got re-recommended to me after 5 years, wowee the nostalgia is strong on this. I remember watching each of the "how to make a clock" videos, patiently waiting for the next. Even after so long, I am still just blown away at the sheer level of craftsmanship and care that was put into this clock. It is so well made, with such high precision and... It's just brilliant in every way. Just to think that (excluding the material/consumable costs), the price for this clock if calculated with minimum wage here in Ireland would be close to *€11,000,* since it's entirely hand made. I hope you still have this clock, because this is something that should be cherished and passed down as a family heirloom.

[@sergioricardopereira]

Sorry to all others machinists in youtube, but this project is the most beautiful thing made in a lathe/mill I ever see... Keep those videos coming... and thanks to show us this project... Regards from Portugal

[@KOakaKO]

It's been very entertaining to see the extreme amount of handwork involved in the creation of your unique and beautiful creation. After the amount of time that was devoted to this project, all I can say is - thank goodness you didn't decide to mine and smelt the copper and zinc ores to make the brass in the first place. ;)

[@sammeyerson1577]

your work is absolutely tremendous and a joy to watch. Not only does your craftsmanship and research go above and beyond but your skill to film and document to make the process look effortless is truly amazing

[@dhs186]

I cried a little bit after watching this...in awe of the craftsmanship, the dedication, the math and engineering...its like...well...a mini version of God to me - an aspiration to be the best at what you were put on this earth to achieve. I can't wait to watch more. Keep up the amazing work!

[@Clickspring]

Terrific to have your support David, some new material out soon :)

[@orchardwatchandclockrepair8346]

Fantastic remarks. Totally agree

[@GeneralSeptem]

I find it amazing that your videography and editing style has been not only good but so consistent over the entire project. Most other youtubers I see "evolve" over the years, but the first and last videos of this project truly look like they belong to the same series.

[@taba1950]

if I ever have enough money I will build a workshop to build my own clock, just because of you. thank you sir

[@spaminbox]

the desire for a 12 hour video of the clock running is still strong after 3 years.

[@johnnydeerfist3727]

papers please

[@BigLarge127]

The level of craftsmanship here has literally left me speechless; it is far and above what I thought was possible.

[@aeviwright7846]

I'm no appraiser but with the amount of work and attention to detail on top of hand making every piece id say that beauty is worth at a minimum 20,000$. This work is on par with the works of master clock and watch makers around the world and could easily get showcased at baselworld with the other non-watch pieces in the art section.

[@shaunnit]

I know it's none of my business but ID really like to know what inspires this man. Because he inspires me 🇦🇺👏

[@Splattertube]

Revisiting this (again) after the card press video. Fantastic and mesmerizing. Lovely work, Chris.

[@mk1cortinatony395]

me too! awesome stuff.

[@cammelspit]

Anyone else up for a ten hour video of the clock ticking? I mean, just the clock and nothing else running for ten hours. Beautiful work, really.

[@FCNFAST]

Clickspring hands down has the best videos on youtube..

[@desromic]

I've been following the entire series. You deserve an award for filmmaking, truly.

[@whynotdean8966]

CAN YOU NOT dude. Making the rest of us plebeians look like fumbling toddlers in the shop.

[@Ryan_Atomic]

but why NOT dean

[@TwistedEngines]

No clue how I ended up on this video. But DAM... I'm hooked

[@bendingsands87]

I've never seen anything handmade as beautiful as that. Thank you.

[@BuildYourOwnWatch]

The quality of craftsmanship is obvious in this amazing production. The clock is a work of art that I watched the 3 seconds or so you show it working for about ten minutes. Beautiful creation!

[@smellofmetal]

1:56 - the most satisfying second of video on all of youtube.

[@jacekgospodarczyk4384]

Chris, as usual, the art of perfection, both in technique and in making the films

[@LostInThe0zone]

Your craftsmanship is phenomenal. It is difficult for me to believe that you could find the clients who could afford to pay what would be required for you to continue this meticulous work and be paid what it's value is.

[@fkingride.5500]

this guy was given all of humanitys patience ! bravo!

[@redline870]

I was just referred here from Adam Savage. Your quality of work, attention to detail, and level of precision is truly remarkable! I cant believe how awesome that was. Everything down to the smallest detail was perfectly made, and meticulously assembled. Unreal! I bet you'd make one sweet 1911!

[@GregsGarage]

I enjoyed every minute of the build Chris. Thanks again for sharing it with us in the way that you did.

[@johnsumner2987]

You sir are aren't just a machinist or a clock maker, you are an Artist.

[@torala]

Just watched the whole series in one sitting. Really fascinating. Thank you!

[@mannycalavera121]

Your video quality is as brilliant as your craftmanship.

[@theCodyReeder]

So impressive! maybe I'm going to need to talk you into machining some parts for me.

No, he's not going to make a clock out of Sodium for you Cody.

[@andregross7420]

Hey Cody

[@Aperson-sv2hc]

A clock out of sodium? lol...

[@SouthernMechanic]

didnt expect to see you here cody, i will be looking for your latest video

[@nedshead5906]

how about a Sodium diving watch...?

[@williamsquires3070]

Love it - there's nothing quite like quality workmanship and taking pride in.a job well done. Something I see less and less of as companies ship their manufacturing out to China and Taiwan, and all we get for it is cheap throw-away junk, and fewer jobs.

[@xl000]

It's nice to see that nowadays, everyone can build those kind of mechanisms in a home shop. Long time ago it was a well guarded secret, and few people had access to the knowledge or machines..

[@jasonweiss2773]

Chris, I'm going to echo some of my previous statements as well as other commenters. Your craftsmanship is only equaled by the exceptional production value of your videos. You are talented in so many facets it boggles the mind. Your channel is far and away the MOST polished on KZbin. I wish I was someone with Hollywood clout to give you a DIY style show of your own. That would be bittersweet however, as they would likely ruin it. I guess the best compliment I can give (and you're deserving of so many) is that your videos are a comfort to me in an otherwise temultous world. A very sincere thank you from your pal in Colorado. Jason

[@davidbalentine2110]

Yes. Well stated. In a world of instability, this work is a comfort. Chris is impressive. Thank you Chris.

[@IgorRebenko]

There's only one word that can describe the feeling of watching your videos, and that's 'Euphoria'.

[@Gilvin]

I followed every episode of this clock making. Really touched about the dedication and the professions.

[@drewkeepemrunning3839]

wow ! I didn't think anybody could come close to the precision and detail of the guy making the Nixie tube "Dalibor Farny" very impressive!!!

[@eddiebernays514]

I can't believe I have watched this being created for the past year or so. sad to see it end. now I am anxious to see SV Seekers boat be completed.

[@GregVirgoe]

Oh mate, your shop is cleaner than a hospital theatre! Totally in awe of your craftsmanship and the end result is spectacular. One of the very best channels on KZbin, Thank you so much.

[@Clickspring]

Cheers Greg, terrific to have you watching mate :)

[@user-ff1hn7ve9e]

The pleasure I get from watching this must be tenfold in the pleasure you get from making the machine. I like to build cars. I really enjoy the task of making parts for my car that nobody else has done. I don't make videos . Thank you for this. It is very enjoyable and it also "resets" my mind to see such perfection in your work. Thank you.

[@josephtaylor6285]

I cheated and sped ahead to see the final product. What lovely restraint. So beautiful

[@Hutch5321]

Don't know how you'll top this, Chris, but I'll sure be sticking around to find out! Bravo, Clickspring!

[@leocelente]

I can't get enough of this project. I think the only way I'd close to satisfied is if you live streamed it running forever.

[@daniellclary]

Oh that is so amazing to watch every beautiful piece get crafted. If I was not so afraid of wasting materiel, I would do stuff like that too.

[@matthasaname]

Chris, you need to be doing paid speaking gigs at Maker Fairs. This clock and all the tooling you made to make it are automatic credentials that no one can dispute. Adam Savage should be doing energetic intros for you on stages in front of thousands of people. I love your work, and your heart for educating. Thank you.

[@moehoward01]

A work of Art, Chris. Thanks.

[@samaker4]

The level of Awesomeness of this project can not be overstated! Thanks Chris, looking forward to the next project.

[@CorbinMusso88]

This is probably my twelfth time through this series. Still as enjoyable as the first time.

[@deankirby5966]

I can't imagine how difficult it must have been to condense your videos into 12min. Great job...as usual.

[@roerich_6426]

Wow, a King of mechanical construction... I lay on the knees on the floor. Wow, what a potential...

[@mannabarbhuiya1]

I don't knw where from you are but I must confess as you are a legend in the field of metal craftsmanship and engineering . A big salute from India.

[@D0S.]

The thing I like most about you is how everything you make is not just functional, but it is also beautiful.

[@ramonbril]

I am just perplexed: what a person is behind such brilliant video quality and these skills of beautiful craftmanship. The perfectionist's ultimate form.

[@SargeRho]

Your clock building series is by far one of my favorite series on youtube. I'm looking forward to your next project! :D

[@AngelLuisTrinidad]

Amazing beautiful. This is true excellence.

Hello Chris , Where are you these days , Your Works are the finest works so far , great going

[@Only1Orinthal]

Before I knew what ASMR was. I used to watch each of these to fall asleep to. Very calming to watch and listen to.

[@EleanorPeterson]

The best part of this is the bit that goes from just before the start through to the bit when it stops.

[@jasperkilford7539]

Man, this is a really wonderful selection of great things - relaxing music, thoughtful camera work and astonishing machining. You really are a renaissance man! I've watched every episode with absolute awe, and enormous respect. You are, without doubt, the most thorough, thoughtful and practical creator I've seen in a long time. And to top it off, you seem like such a humble guy! Hands down the best Content Creator on KZbin, in my opinion. If I had to look back at 2016, following along on this journey with you has been one of the most rewarding and memorable aspects of the year. Huge props, seriously. Thank you.

[@businessgreg77]

I have commented on every video I've seen of yours because I think you need to know. You are a freaking Rockstar in my eyes. Thank you so much for giving craftsman something to strive for. Your work is awesome!

[@MukYJ]

Watching this, I really miss having new full-length Clickspring videos. So relaxing watching a master craftsman at work.

[@Fyr365]

This series was absolutely amazing. It taught me a lot about clockwork. I was wondering though, 8 years later down the road how is the clock faring? Now that I think about it would be great to see how all your creations are doing, to have some follow up on the state of the various mechanisms and maybe your input into what you would have done differently with the skills and tools you have today...

[@andrewdask]

Hey Chris, Another awesome video. Sometimes when i looked them, the parts were really zoomed in and they looked huge, but then you showed them in your hand or in other place, and realized how minimal they actually are. More than craftsmanship this is really art. Love your job, this kind on thing inspires me to do a better job as a fabricator every day, and makes me want to learn something new whenever i can. Keep the good work coming greetings from Venezuela!

[@ryPish]

Whatever you make next needs to have 10 times the number of part, at least... I don't want it to end so quickly :o

[@EliteSniperTV]

Great to have you watching mate :)

[@mickleman52]

I was wondering what was your biggest "oops" moment when making this clock? As far as I can remember you never showed any failed pieces, but was there ever a time you were making something got really far with it and just cut something a bit wrong and had to start over?

[@KevinWoodsWorkshop]

mickleman52 I guess we’ll never know.

[@frollard]

Love it as always. Would love to see a timelapse of the clock running over several hours to see the 'invisible' motion of the hands/mechanism come to life.

Wow satisfaction overload. Is this level of craftsmanship, knowledge and intelligence, patience and humility self made or God given??

[@LazerLord10]

Wow just wow that was amazing
