      @Rich-O-Brien thank you. The bolts tighten up enough for what these need to do but I probably should have extended the that side so I could complete the hex recess. I expect then I could tighten the knob enough to break the clamp.

      @tuna1957 thank you. It does seem to be working fine. The original side things on the foot plate were PLA which is brittle and one of them got broken. Easy enough to print new ones. The current ones are PETG and seem to be holding but I got a spool of TPU yesterday and made a new set that are a little flexible. Maybe they won't break. We'll see when I get the opportunity to swap them in.

      @Gus-R thanks for that. I have been looking for some new sources for stuff to model. I've done a few railroad related models before but it could be time to do more.

      Thaks guys. I did it for someone who asked how to make such a thing. I've not done a lot with Dcs because they are rarely useful in most of my modeling but this was actually surprisingly simple. the hardest part was figuring out the math for the position of the hour hand based on the minute hand location.

      @Rich-O-Brien yeah. I also wonder how long they will last. Actually we're replacing all the windows in our house this year so this one doesn't need to last a real long time. A neighbor down the street has the same kind of windows and has a number of broken ones so I'll print some for him, too. I have no idea but my guess is they were used on another type of window, too.. And maybe in a different way that would make the the curves, notch, and second set of holes required. Those features certainly aren't used in the application on our windows. I like the new version better, too. Thanks.

      @Rich-O-Brien thank you! By "spindle arm" are you referring to the lead screw that drives the moving anvil?
