Triple Axis 3D printed Tourbillion build (TT Furious Bambu Maker's kit)
8 months ago

This is a scaled up model of a spherical Tourbillion. A tourbillion is a complex watch mechanism that attempts to average out gravity's effects on a mechanical watch by continually reorienting the escapement mechanism. These days, tourbillions can still be found in watches, but exist primarily for their amazing miniaturized aesthetic complexity and bling-factor than for accurate timekeeping.
This particular build required a lot of tuning to get it to run (and much more to get it to run well). I guess they call them "complications" for a reason.
All credit for design goes to McMaven (3d print adaptation) and Jacobs & Co (original design... check out their wildly creative watches).
Printed on a Bambu X1-carbon with AMS.
