Nearly there.

As is often the way I've drifted off from the model I was designing to something else. So, now we have "Counting Sheep", turn the handle and and the ratchet / pawl drive increments the counter.
No more insomnia for me, count the sheep - fall to sleep. Simple.
I still have a few small changes to make but basically I think the model is done. New downloadable soon.

If you count in base 2, you could use simpler mechanisms.
And anyway, (as a computer programmer) I could never fall asleep if I had to convert that sheep counter display from decimal back into binary.
