Design Your Own Sunburst Clock

thingiverse

Modernism converges with modern technology in a 3D printed geometric clock face influenced by retro Sunburst/Starburst/Atomic clock designs. ###Click "Open in Customizer" to design your own clock!### <a href="http://geekhaus.com/hacktastic_files/clockmaker-12clocks-newrender.gif"><img src="http://geekhaus.com/hacktastic_files/clockmaker-12clocks-newrender.gif" title="source: mathgrrl.com/hacktastic" /></a> This clock design generator was created with OpenSCAD code. You can download the .scad file to play with the code yourself in OpenSCAD, or use the Customizer interface to set a random seed and experiment with style parameters. The printed clock faces from this generator will work with any short-shaft battery-powered clock assembly, like this $8 kit on Amazon: [Youngtown Silent Clock Movement with Small Hands](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G5PSP21/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B07G5PSP21&linkCode=as2&tag=mathgrrl-20&linkId=b561313ed926eb9e56b0eef6ee766028). Here's what the clock looks like when the 3D printed face is combined with the clock mechanism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_Tt9wGhV_E Don't have a 3D printer or want something fancy?
