A different version of the old perpetual calendar decorated with cute, curious kittens watching whats happening.
The cat drawings were made with the help of AImake.
The video shows some key points of the assembly, which, together with the manual, complete the understanding of the piece, its operation and dynamics. The idea of a perpetual clock is quite old, and it is possible to find numerous versions of this idea. I tried to put my point of view, adding small words that welcome the arrival of a new month and a new year.

The manual shows, in a very simple way, how to assemble the calendar. The order of the "days" and "months" pieces is of primary importance for the overall functioning of the set. In general, it is not a complex project, but with patience and care it is possible to assemble it without problems. Enjoy the passage of time with it.




Here are some photos showing general aspects of the assembly and the order of the parts. The illustrated manual is a supplement; I advise everyone to look at the photos, videos, and the manual so you can get an idea of the whole set. If you have any questions, just send a message; I will be very happy to clarify. Thank you very much ;)



For rotating parts, I sometimes add a little graphite. Graphite acts like grease, facilitating the rotation of the parts, which then slide more easily.
