Rough out
some clock hands with the snipers. Grind and file until they are the correct size.
Drill out the center, and when finished, push over clock stud and epoxy into place.
Note: I like to feed twice a day. The hands are spaced for approximately 9
hours difference. If you only want to feed once a day, snip off the other hand.
These hands
are VERY rough and only on the clock (at this point) as an example.

Spring NOTE: The spring should be VERY, very light. Just enough tension to keep the trigger in place and then return the trigger once tripped. Too much tension will cause the clock hands to stop and the clock will not have enough power to rotate around.
