🐦 Cuckoo Clock Lab: Bellows Whistle Pipes, Rack-and-Snail Strike and Weight-Driven Pendulum

3D Black-Forest cuckoo clock built in Blender: a weight-driven pendulum with an anchor escapement, a rack-and-snail strike that counts the hours, and two bellows-blown stopped whistle pipes, with live rate error, pipe pitch and strike counts.
