Hello everyone, this is my first post. I was experimenting with vertical redstone, and i thought to my self that i could make a VERTICAL CLOCK. There are probably better ones out there, and there are probably people who already use this, but i built this my self
It's nice that you found this out by yourself, but I suggest you check other designs and see if this has already been made before you post it. I have seen a lot of clocks that people claim to be the first to make them, but eventually someone writes a reply that shows an older version.
Sorry for kinda ruining it for you, but I think a lot of people need to learn to use the search bar.
Whenever you create a clock, latch or other redstone circuit it is always a good idea to check the following thread to see if it has been done before; Ultimate Collection of Redstone Circuit Designs
But I should make a note of it, if you create something that isn't in the UCRC because of large size (such as adding a few extra blocks to a XOR latch) then it won't be received very well - people are like that here, sometimes. If a smaller version of something already exists, they tend to look down on "larger" versions unless there is some significant advance or change - piston-less, faster, doesn't use a redstone bug over a bug-using version, etc...

Well actually you can get rid of that bottom repeater and just put the torch on the side
However, upon doing that, it can no longer toggle, unless you don't intend to draw any outputs from the redstone on the side. It's still fine if you're only drawing from the torch though (or if you want it's "off-state" to be 1)

This is awesome. Now if only I could understand what the hell it all means.
The brilliant part about that design is that literally every single block, including just the building blocks, conduct some sort of alternating power. So you can take the output from anywhere. You can also pretty much power any of those blocks to turn the thing off, and if it ends up being inverted, you can add a torch to the end to fix that.
It wont end up inverted because the torch and the dust are opposite. When the torch is on the dust is off and vice versa, so it just depends on which side you draw the power from.
Wow thanks for the responses, i feel that i achieved GREATNESS (LOL) ty verymuch
