Reply to "A NEW COUNTER DESIGN"

"I have never heard of the counter failing."

That's a quote from Peter Riegel who's had about as much experience with counters as anybody, so it most be pretty unusual for counters to fail, but mine did. When it was about to turn over from 999999 to 000000, it didn't; instead, the last ring of numerals kept turning, but the others did not. I dissected the thing (purchased, I believe, in the early 1980s from the Joneses themselves) and didn't see an obvious problem that I could fix. Plus, I pretty much destroyed it taking it apart. The gear-drive parts seem fine, though.
