Mechanical Watch Prototype

To continue with the watch theme, I've starting working on another one! And before the first one is completely finished... Sometimes that's just how personal projects work.

With the addition of the Form2 3D printer in the maker space, thanks to a very generous donation, we now have the ability to print all sorts of high resolution parts in finishes and materials not possible with traditional FDM processes.

For this watch I wanted to highlight the capability of the Form2 to print in clear. This is an excellent material for lenses, lighting, or mechanical watches! This is round one of the clear watch, and I am very happy with the results. The next time I get around to ordering watch components I'll be able to get the necessary parts to finish both watches.

Freshly printed parts on the Form2 need to be washed and then cured under UV light
