Hi,

An interesting design, I like it. The idea of using super glue as a hardening agent is very good and I think it should improve the wearing characteristics of the wood. On the Aero clock  unless the bearings of the compound pendulum are very low friction they are usually poor and inconsistent time keepers.  A conventional simple pendulum could replace the compound one though it will be a lot longer but should require less power. I look forward to hearing how the clock performs.

Take care Tony.
