- In this video, we're making a clock made of clocks! If would like some more information on how this was done, check out my Instructable below that walks through the process step by step!
www.instructables.com/Clockce...
This is actually a replica of the ClockClock designed and built by Humans Since 1982. I came across the clock a few years ago and I was instantly mesmerized by its synchronized movement and minimalistic beauty. If you haven't seen it, take a look at their site as it truly is a work of art.
That said, bespoke art usually comes at a price. In this case, $6k - $11k depending on the finish.. If you have the means, I'd highly recommend you pick one up. But if you're like me and don't have a spare $6k laying around, then you're in luck because today I'm going to show you how you can build a simpler version of one for around $200 with some basic tools and a 3D printer!
Hoping to make more projects and videos like this to with the goal of inspiring folks to create and make some things of their own! I've seen a lot channels about wood working, 3D printing, and programing, but on this channel we'll be combining all those elements to make some really cool things!
That said, if you have any projects you’d like to see made, let me know in the comments below!
Thanks and have a great day! :) - Jak na to + styl
Such a cool concept, I’ve never seen something quite like this before!
Brilliant. Well done. There is nothing like the feeling when a piece of software -just works- and all the work in the hardware too , you did a fantastic job there.
At 19:43 I physically applauded. Thank you for included all of the failed attempts and troubleshooting. Super inspirational and an awesome project I really hope to try my hand at someday. 👏👏👏
I cannot thank you enough for going through this huge project step by step with so much depth. I'm currently living abroad and am going to try to make this when I get back to the states in July. I'm going to try to have it done by Christmas 2023 so I can gift it to my parents for their new house. Thanks again!
You can also use black arms to hide those which are not required to indicate digit 1.
Great Idea! Might need to make a new version to try this!
Or just cover that corner.
That's so cool! I especially love, that you also included the first tries, which did not go as planned. Thanks so much for sharing, and Marry Christmas!
Seriously well done man. I saw the original clockclock a few years ago in a customers home and was really really impressed. The fact that you designed and built that on your own is super impressive.
What an incredible idea! I've never seen a display like yours. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much! 😊
Stepper motors, my dude.
17:17 I can read alien. It says the coding would have been a lot easier if the clocks featured rotary encoders, but then the fabrication process would have been more difficult.
That is a real nice project. Great work!
Some people either have way too much time on their hands or they a just simply awesome. A project like this makes me believe in the second option. Excellent, thanks for sharing.
Subscribed to your channel, watched this vid over and over! So cool man, keep building
Excellent work! I'm debating doing this myself and you've already done the hard work! :)
Brilliant work!
Many thanks!
Cool project! Keep them coming!
Thank you! More to come!
Ok, I think is really worth building it! CONGRATULATIONS!
Thank you so much!! This really inspires me to build something new! Stay tuned.
What a crazy idea.. This is nice piece of art!
Thank you very much! Hoping to make an updated version soon!
Hollywood California - every street has a story and these are but just a few on On Cinema On Location.
It is so cool! Congrats for the effort!
Thank you Marcos! Hope this inspires people to create some fun things of their own!
Awesome work man
Thanks a ton! Been awesome to see so many people enjoyed this! Will be releasing more projects soon!
Cool project! definitely deserve more views
Much appreciated!
at success, it brings a smile to my face too...
Happy to have inspired some positivity for your day! Comments like these are exactly why I want to make more videos. Thanks!
@@madebymorgan547 pls make more videos ... I'm very interested in Arduino projects
Amazing project. One idea I just thought of is to have each individual clock show the actual analog time before displaying the over all large digital number. Seems like it wouldn’t be too hard with all the groundwork Code you’ve done! Amazing!
Cool idea! Hoping to make an updated version of this soon and will definitely consider adding this in! Thanks for the view!
beautifull. you could make music with that also... maybe program rithms with the servos.
Fun idea. 🙂
Thanks! Trying to think up the next fun idea now :)
Is this style of clock available on the market? Love the way it works
Genio
Great work. I would love to build something like that one day
Thank you!!
You can do it! I have a full DIY guide to walk you though the process!

Nice project! That instruction link is unavailable now.
Thank you! I just tried the link and it’s working from my end. Can you let me know if you’re still having issues?
insane skills. great build. great attitude. i would have been throwing tools at several different occasions of this build. nice twerk
Haha Thanks! I may have just cleverly cut those sections from the video ;)
@03:57 You kno'... Adding something like a 0.3mm Chamfer to the edges contacting the first layer sure does help with preventing such clearance related cleanups without compromising dimensions and also makes the part that extra little bit more comfortable to hold if the intention is to handle it ( not exactly the case with yours but you get the idea... ).
Also regarding the minute hand shaft - Maybe don't print one and instead use a cutoff piece of filament and adjust the passthrough hour shaft accordingly ( with like a 3mm bore tapering to like 1.8mm ( make it 1.5mm and _ream_ it to 1.8mm ) at the ends to reduce friction with a perfect fit? Can't get a cheaper and smoother shaft than that without using round stock and a bearing.
And yea... @17:05 - If my movie experience is anything to go by you pretty much want to start running like hell: czcams.com/video/9m7hPlL-v4A/video.html
HAHAHA This made my day!!! Happy to report, I survived the explosion!
Good point on the chamfer. I started doing this on my prints after this project and it worked exactly as you described. I also recently discovered a setting called "initial layer offset" in Cura that seems to helped with this a ton too.
Also, interesting idea on using a piece of filament for the shaft and offsetting the bore. Like you mentioned, it really only needs to be constrained at the face and gear so that would be a really good way to reduce the friction along the length of the shaft.
Thanks for the view, laugh, and suggestions!
Do you even nail clippers?
/jk
Great work (y)
With this system, you could not display the number "8" and other numbers
Maybe adding a second hand could fix that
You can't display a proper "8" but at 18:53, you can see how I got around that. czcams.com/video/DN_BydIUGT8/video.html
Good Idea! I've also though about adding a 3rd black hand to cover the arms when they aren't needed. Maybe time for a rev 2 version?
Serious issue: McMaster-Carr provide those 3d models, yes. However, I believe it is against their EULA to print the parts using said models. I recommend reading the EULA to make sure you haven't broken it.
Thanks for the note. Will look into this.
3:56 oh man chemia nowej ery vibes
69 subs? Big project for a small channel. Look forward to new project ideas when the channel is larger
Thank you! Hoping to release so new projects soon!
How much? Let me know
Sorry it’s not for sale. You can build one of your own though following my instructable guide in the video description!
pls upload the video "Explaining the code"... waiting....
Good suggestion! In the mean time, If you head to my instructable page, you can download the code and I've done my best to comment what each line is doing. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!

@@madebymorgan547 sure .... ✌️ And thanx
I DO read Alien and how dare you, clock.
Ohh man.. I thought it was trying to say something! Please forgive the insult.
Humans since 1982 inspired?
Yes indeed it was! 100% credit for the idea goes to them for the idea and I will say, their execution is quite impressive and I love watching its movement. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.
dude, what's that in your mouth?
Music in the beginning way too loud - almost completely masks out your voice.
Appreciate the feedback. My first time making a video and I learned a lot in the process! The next one should be better :)
This is predator clock...😅
I hadn't realized it but someone else linked the explosion scene in another comment and you are definitely not wrong!! This clock is still humming away in my hallway and I'm beginning to think I should unplug it and cover it with a blanket in the closet....
@@madebymorgan547 this clock is great!! Good yob...😉💪
To muselo dát práce a přitom taková blbost!
