Colorful Wall Clock 55cm

myminifactory

Big colorful wall clock, 55cm in diameter. Consists of 12 segments and center, all of which can be printed on 22x22 cm bed. Requires a battery-driven clock mechanism. The maximum diameter for the mechanism is 80 mm. If in doubt, print the center first and find a matching mechanism. The diameters of the axes in my clockwork are 5mm for hours and 3.2mm for minutes. Print all parts with supports, except the hands. When printing the hands, adjust the z-offset so that the longer sides consist of two layers. I painted the insides of the segments with thick layer of white, after which I applied crackle lacquer and different colors. Then I arranged the segments in nice order (top segment on top, of course) and glued the digits in segments. Then I glued the segments and center together with epoxy. To give the frame a rough look, I sanded it with coarse sandpaper and painted it with black hammerite. As a final step, i drybrushed parts of the frame with metallic copper.
