Aero Clock

Ready to make your own clock? The time has come

For years, we've been hearing the same question again and again from our loyal customers: "Can UGEARS create a working gear wall clock model that keeps accurate time?"

We are proud to present the Aero Clock, a one-of-a-kind 3D wooden puzzle and fully functioning DIY pendulum clock.

Complexity combined with elegance: The Aero Clock is one of the most sophisticated and ingenious model kit clock puzzles for kids and adults. The assembled magic clock puzzle is driven by the force of gravity pulling on a bag you fill with sand or salt. Raise the bag on its pulleys to wind the 3D wall clock. As the weight slowly descends, it rotates a drive gear that rotates an escape wheel through a reducer.

Special features: On our Aero Clock, time is not marked by hands moving over a clock face. Instead, a fixed pointer indicates the time on the numbered hour and minute discs that slowly rotate counterclockwise. We've replaced the classic cuckoo with a hot air balloon that descends rapidly when the hour strikes then slowly rises again for the next 60 minutes.

Dedicated to discovery: UGEARS mechanical clock kits celebrate the crucial role of clocks in accurately determining longitude so early explorers could determine precisely where they were and could then travel there again. Our Aero Clock wood clock puzzle pays tribute to these brave adventurers.

Memorable experience: Like other UGEARS engineering toys and clock model kits for adults, Aero Clock offers the great satisfaction of building an actual functioning timepiece that is both gorgeous and precise. This is a perfect family project or a solo DIY engineering kit and a memorable 11-hour adventure.
