Clock hand balancing and area gadget

Post by Kayvon »

Do you have an unhealthy obsession with wooden clocks? Does your deranged psyche possess you to continually create your own? Has it gotten so bad that you're creating your own designs? I can help!

Well, no, I can't fix the obsession. But I can help your design with this gadget for balancing clock hands (or anything else). Using the gadget is simple:
  • Highlight the object to want to balance
  • Rotate the object so it's balancing left-to-right
  • Move the object so its pivot is at x=0
  • Run the gadget
The gadget tells you how balanced your object is. It also tells you the total area, which may even be useful when you're not creating clocks.

Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
