ANIMATION DESCRIPTION:
The gears and the nut holding the one gear in place were
modelled using Moray.  Everything else is a primitive done
by hand.
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED:
Countless efforts to get the clock variable to work just right was
where most of the time was spent.

A friend at work said he saw something on TV about mechanical objects
smaller than atoms.  I knew that it was impossible to exist, so 
I decided to make one.
