stepper "Stepper" was built a few years ago with hand-made oak gears and other wooden components. Each revolution of the main gear lifts a wooden weight up one step, until after five steps the weight drops and drives a bell-ringer to the top of a brass rod to ring the bell.

"Stepper" won second place at the 2nd annual Art on the Common in Londonderry, NH.
