Clock Making Kit

About the Kit:

This kit is designed to help any maker get started making a clock! Sometimes, putting together the technical hardware for a project can be a bit of a hassle... so I made a little kit that takes care of that part so makers can channel their energy and creativity into the clock itself!

Recommended Print Settings:

🕒 Make sure to print the nut and hands to match the color scheme of your clock!

Support:

The only thing you'll want to support is the inside of the sliding piece on the mount that attaches to the desk stand:

How to Use the Kit

The kit is centered around the housing unit. It is designed to easily snap the quartz mechanism into place. The ridges on the side allow the mechanism to slide in with some applied force, and then keep the mechanism locked in place.

It has a cut-out in the back for easy access to the battery and the time adjustment knob.

The housing has a hole at the top to allow for wall-hanging, as well as a port at the bottom for sliding into the stand to be placed on any surface.

Once the quartz mechanism is installed, it can be secured to the clock with the printed custom nut.

Finally, the hands can be attached to the face of the clock.

NOTE: DO NOT push the second hand in too tightly. Only push it far enough that it sticks into the mechanism. Pushing it too far can prevent the mechanism from turning properly.

Commercial Use:
