Grandfather Clock Case for EC1515B and DS1302 Rotating Clock Kits

thingiverse

I built this EC1515B clock kit several years ago and it's been sitting around without a case ever since. There are other 3D printable cases out there for these clocks, but I wanted something unique to stand out. To my knowledge, no one has ever put one in a grandfather clock. This model is printed in multiple sections without supports for any component, so long as the pieces are printed in the orientation they're presented in. I printed the pins with a brim, but if you can print them without one, it's highly suggested to do so. As small as they are, they're a pain to get off. For assembly, you'll need four 3mm nuts; four 3mm bolts that are 10mm long; and eight 3mm bolts that are 8mm long. Assembly is pretty straightforward. The finials are glued in place with pins. The topper is screwed to the main face with 3mm bolts. The main face is screwed to the central portion with 3mm bolts. The central section is glued to the base with pins. The spindles are glued in place on the main face, aligning the corners of the spindles with the corners of the main face. The clock itself is screwed to the main face with 3mm x 10mm bolts and nuts. The main face lid is screwed in place with 3mm bolts. The finished product is right at 14 inches tall. If you print this, I would really appreciate two things: 1) Please upload a make, and 2) It'd be awesome if you could tip me a little something for this model. I worked hard on this one, and I'm pretty proud of it. If you want to donate using bitcoin, my address is 1DdWx5E86iQsVam361q3T4qMGKXdGBRCxx. Due to either a Thingiverse bug or (more likely) shadowbanning, my models no longer show up under the newest listings. If you want to see more of my models, please be sure to follow me. It would really help if you'd post a make so that others could find this model.
