Wooden clock gear

Hello. For a few years now, I’ve dabbled on and off with trying to make a (working) wooden clock escapement. I’ve done OK with my scroll saw, but the escape wheel is finicky and really has to be cut to perfection. My new Shapeoko 3 does it perfectly every time!

Anyone interested can see my work here: http://www.projectclock.org/index.php/welcome/tooth24 and here http://www.projectclock.org/index.php/welcome/cnc (bottom).

Thanks for reading, and I welcome any comments.
