Description

Designer George Nelson was commissioned by Herman Miller in the 40s to design a line of clocks. This is a faithful recreation of the Petal Clock designed in 1957. A classic midcentury modern design retweeked 1:1 for the post-modern world.

 

I have used several different generic clock work kits that have all worked well. I'll link one of them. Note that the Bambu clock kit will not fit.

Stock x1c settings work well. For the petal just push the model to the far side of the build plate or disable the flow calibration as they overlap with the model. I would not recommend resizing the clock ask the holes will no longer fit the clockwork. If people are interested in a smaller version for other printers leave a comment and I can upload reworked models.

 

EDIT: I resized it to have a profile that works with the A1 mini. Note that I don't own a mini so I havent tested it. Also added a profile for A1 as well.
