Clock Final Project
For research I was looking up different clock designs. I was thinking of doing things based off of games or movies I liked. Then I realized I didn't actually know how to make a design and not mess it up. The first design I was looking at looked too flimsy. So I decided to try to make the second design.
I know this picture isn't exactly clear but that is when I cut my clock hands on the laser. You can see the hole in the middle of the hand that I made too small.
I cut out the face of my clock on the router, though I had a ton of problems with Fusion 360, because for some reason my initial free use for education got ignored/rejected. I ended up losing an entire day of work because all the machines I needed were being used and I couldn't use Fusion 360.
My final machine to use was the vinyl cutter, I had to cut out the numbers. I decided to go with the second image from the left in my research. So I didn't need to include all the numbers. I made yet another mistake here though and forgot to use or bring transfer tape to be able to put my numbers on. So, I have to do that manually.

Assembling the clock
I learned how to properly put together the clock. I also learned that spray paint is corrosive and foam is very easily corroded.
