New Plastic and Wood clock on the way

After some time way from my garage and design activities I am back with a new idea.

This time will be a modernistic table clock design with several interesting features:

  • Combination of wood and plastic: The frame, the base and the dial will be made of wood. The wheels will be made of acrylic.
  • All wheels will have an outer diameter of 6”
  • This clock will have a seconds hand, but a very special one: retrograde seconds hand
  • There will be a lot of “action” in the clock as it will have 5 wheels
  • Will be driven by a stepper motor and an Arduino controller

Here is the computer design of the clock.

The clock does not have a name so in invite my readers to suggest one.
