How to Remake a Clock
This is how I remade a dull, shelf alarm clock, and made it into an interesting mantle clock.
Supplies
- A small, quartz clock (quartz meaning = electric)
- MDF
- Screwdriver
- Hot glue (gun and sticks)
- Carvey (mini CNC machine)
Find a Clock
Find a clock in your house. A clock that is preferably small and expendable.
Deconstruction
Deconstruct the clock until you only have the main clock functions intact. (as seen in the picture)
Digital Fabrication
Design the product on a CAD program. (such as Tinkercad)
(The design can be anything. I changed my design many times.)
Carve the Parts
Carve the MDF into parts for building the housing for the clock.
Construct Final Piece
Construct your product using the materials you carved and the hot glue.
