Hi David,

Been there, done that already but Matron still lets me out at the
weekends if I eat all my rice pudding up all week! I was actually
thinking of rather more esoteric escape wheels and some of the odd

'scape wheels could be made by simply offsetting the 'z' axis but have
you ever tried cutting a club tooth escape?
