This is a 3D printed clock designed off of a concept posted by redditor Phatricko on Reddit. The high-torque clock movement provides precise timekeeping while every other component was created using the Makegear M2. Check out the time-lapse video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcVpRBOVCNU for an up-close look at this intricate design. Here's how to assemble and use your 3D printed clock: First, print the entire piece in PLA. Pause the print when you reach the numbers layer, then change to black filament to achieve a sleek contrast. Next, attach a high-torque movement like this one: http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/high-torque-movement-863845/. This is essential for accurate timekeeping. Press-fit the hour dial into place. For added stability, secure the minute hand with the provided dial nut from the clock mechanism.
