Clock Vitesse Arnhem

My kid is a huge fan of the Dutch Premier Division soccer club Vitesse, and when he moved into his new place, I decided to get him something special for his house. So, I ordered some affordable (70 eurocent) clock modules from China. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-shipping-Quartz-Clock-Movement-Mechanism-DIY-Repair-Parts-Black-Hands/32826015747.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dTYQpSE Then, I designed the clock face in the club's colors: yellow, black, and white. The bottom 1.5mm are yellow, then from 1.5mm to 2.5mm are black, and above that it's white. So, you'll need to tell your g-code to change colors at those points. Since I don't have experience with g-code, I used Prusacontrol (since I have a Prusa printer, the software is already on my computer). Because of the size of the clock face, which has a diameter of 200mm, I had to print the first layer at a speed of 55% to get a nice finish. It wasn't perfect, but it was enough because the following layers would cover up any small imperfections. After the print was done, I assembled the clock, and made a short movie about it that you can watch here: https://youtu.be/BrWfvKkEGms When I was satisfied with the assembly, I glued the clock module to the back of the clock face and made sure everything was secure and working properly. Finally, I made some spacers to glue on the back of the clock face so it could be attached to a wall. The STL files are included in the package. One spacer has a hole (for attaching it to the screw) and goes on the back of the face at 12 o'clock, while the other two are placed around 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock. The result is simple but rather nice, and it's personalized just for my kid.
