Description

For those long quarantine weeks where the days blend together. This clock uses a servo so the clock hand always points at the center of the day, it does not "sweep" through the day smoothly like a normal clock would; at midnight, the hand moves to the next day. Thanks to the gearing, this works with a normal 180 degree servo. Code is included, just update to your WiFi information!

Print Settings

Printer: Ender 3

Rafts: No

Supports: No

Resolution: .2

Infill: 20%

Filament_brand: Hatchbox

Filament_color: Variety

Filament_material: PLA

Notes:

Print the clock hand at 100% infill, everything else can be at 20%. I used a brim for the clock face to prevent warping and changed the filament between layer 15/16. Edit: Added separate files for the clock face, rings, and letters so it can be printed on an SLA printer and glued together.

Post-Printing

  • Trim brim from clock face, including from notch at bottom 
  • Push the servo into the slot until it hits the bottom 
  • Screw servo gear onto servo horn 
  • Attach servo horn to servo 
  • Place box on top of servo and coil cable inside, connect to Wemos D1 
  • Put clock hand through clock face into clock gear, align to Saturday 
  • Place clock in base; I used a dab of glue to prevent it from moving at all 
  • Run Day_Verification to calibrate middle of day values 
  • Update values in Clock.ino and upload
