Well, I'm trying to make a clock. &#A0;I need a really good motor to make it run. &#A0;I've looked at all sorts of clocks in which the gears and stuff are preassembled, but the problem is this: &#A0;The hour hand shaft is a hollow tube that is lower than the minute hand shaft. &#A0;The minute hand one is inside the hour tube.

Anyhow, I need a preassembled clock that looks like this...

minute shaft ----------> &#A0;| &#A0;| &#A0;| &#A0;|

How or where can I get this? &#A0;I'm trying to build my own customized clock as an alternative, but now I can't find a place with gears! &#A0;Arg! &#A0; >:(
Help?
PS: I'm trying to make the clock from Majora's Mask.
Edit: The diagram isn't showing up right. Bah. If you have a question ask me about it.

if you put stuff in [ code] [ /code] tags it appears mono spaced.

The clock from Majoras Mask? Isn't it a half circle? How do you want to solve this?
A half circle? No. Actually it's a circle, and then a ring around the circle in the middle.
The only way I can see to solve this would be to order a customized clock movement or to build one myself. The harder one is of course probably to build it myself. However, I know someone that I could get to help me later maybe.
I drew up a diagram for how it would work. I doubt anyone would really understand them if I put it up, but if you want me to just say so.

Whatever. Can't remember how it works.
Oh! No, I mean the clock inside the buildings or the one on the clock tower. The half circle one I'm not sure what I'd do if I were making it.
