Column Clock

Description

This is the result of many hours of daydreaming over a sleek compact desk clock. I have always liked the idea of unique takes on traditional items and wanted to see how far I could take the concept of a clock without having to design my own movement. I designed this clock to be covered, but I understand others may like it without. For this reason, I've included an optional base that can be used without the glass. I also used a clock movement that I had purchased in the past, but any movement that is 2 ¼ x 2 ¼ x 5/8 inches with a 5/8 x 5/16-inch diameter shaft should work. In case of any variation in parts I have included a step file for easier editing and remixing. Supports should only be needed if you’re printing the base to be used with the glass. I designed in supports for the columns to achieve better results in the numbers. These can be clipped out using side cutters if need be, but I recommend using a heated hobby knife if available. I personally had to print the columns a few times because the fragile number segments broke while using side cutters. If you find your hand happens to be loose in the base I found increasing the initial layer line width to help. I also found placing a small loop of ribbon under the battery made removing it much easier. Clock Movement (This is not the movement I used but it should work. If anyone tries these please let me know you're results.) https://www.amazon.com/EMOON-Movement-Mechanism-Silent-Replacement/dp/B07T7HHJR2?th=1 Glass…
