I love clocks and watches, I know they're dieing out now as most everyone has a cellphone to tell the time.

Here's doing soemthing the hard way

etcha sketch clock

I was also directed to this on Vernier clocks, also awesome, I have a great idea for this, whenever I have free project time :neutral:

The vernier clock and watch are both pretty cool and don't look like they would be that hard to build.

I made a clock, with just an hour hand, out of an old brass boiler pressure gage.
It's very easy to tell the time within 10 minutes, and closer with some practice.

I have this really cool clock that always tells the time one hour in advance. Unfortunately, every March it screws up and does not fix itself again until October.

About 9" in diameter. I ignore the numbers and read the hand position.
