Gyro Watch Winder by MostlyTrains

Last crawled date: 4 years ago

This is a ground-up redesign of a similar Gyro Winder found elsewhere on Thingiverse.
The major design changes are listed here:
Uses 683ZZ Ball Bearings on all pivots
Cam & switch on drive arm for fine positioning of rings
Moved most of the fasteners to hidden locations
Added provisions to hold circuit boards
Included in this Thing are a few additional files:
GyroWinder.easm This is a SolidWorks eDrawing file showing the assembled GyroWinder. eDrawings is a free program you can get from SolidWorks.
GyroWinder BOM.txt This file lists all of the hardware for the GyroWinder.
Gyro_Watch_Winder.ino This is the Arduino controller program for running the winder's stepper motor.
Most of the hardware can be sourced from Amazon, Ali Express or similar on-line stores.
Not shown in the Bill of Materials file is a suitable power supply & cord for the electronics.
Oh, and a watch that needs winding...
