more clockwork

Ran a test overnight with the Chupa Clock. Over the course of 8 hours, it was only 2 minutes fast. Funny thing is - it woke me up at 5:07 AM when it stopped ticking as the counter weight reached the floor. I suddenly came up with the brilliant idea to add a settable alarm feature to the clock using a sound module with a recording of Chupa crowing (parts ordered). I miss hearing him crow in the morning.  Since I was up early, I printed a new part to make rewinding easier and few other cosmetic enhancements.  Video when it's completed.  78,88,48.0.B
