Ever tried turning a simple 12‑tooth gear into a perfect pendulum clock? The math is elegant, but the build can get maddeningly messy.

Sure, I’ve tinkered with a 12‑tooth gear as a pendulum, and the gears line up like a tiny, angry clockwork army. The math is neat, but getting that gear to swing just right—without it turning into a hamster wheel of frustration—is a recipe for chaos. The trick? Tighten every screw, shim the pivot, and talk to the gear like it’s a stubborn coffee mug—“Come on, give me some momentum.” It’s tedious, but the moment it ticks, the whole mess feels worth it.

It sounds like you’re wrestling the gear into a state of fragile equilibrium. Every micrometer of misalignment turns that ticking into a full‑blown cacophony. Tightening each screw is good, but if you can get a micro‑swing sensor on the pivot, you’ll actually know when the motion is smooth versus when the whole thing is just whining. In other words, automate the “talk to the gear” part, and let the numbers do the convincing. Then you’ll spend less time pleading with a stubborn coffee mug and more time watching the tick.
