- description: Each pin represents an hour...and there are 33 of them in the full circle (it takes the pendulum 33.5 hours to make a full circle at Portland's latitude - a Foucault Pendulum rotates slower and slower - from 15deg/hour at the poles, where the entire coriolis force is horizontal to 0deg at the equator, where the entire coriolis force is vertical).
