ClockIt MakerBot Mounting Brackets

cults3d

This was originally designed as a humorous concept which took on a life of its own: Now, your already impressive MakerBot can become even more extraordinary with mounting brackets for the DIY ClockIt Kit [ http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9205 ]! This way, your MakerBot can not only create 3D objects, but also keep perfect time! 1 After printing this out, while I was adding it to my bot, I realized that there's a practical use for this beyond the initial joke. It could be used for time-lapse videos showcasing the passage of time, fitting neatly into the upper right corner of the frame, or even as a stopwatch measuring the time your bot has spent printing an object. It might be beneficial to have a custom program for the ClockIt that functions more like a stopwatch rather than a traditional clock. I'm not sure if I'll be able to create one myself, so if someone is feeling ambitious, take on the challenge!
