Lego Clock

This is not my project, just found it on the web. Please delete it if it's aleady been posted

It's a fun and inexpensive LEGO clock. You can easily change out the minifigures or LEGO bricks to match your mood. Clock kits run around $10 to $15, or you could try to use the parts from a thrifted clock for much less.

Great way to display your spare minifigs, or create a themed clock; Star Wars, Super Heroes, LOTR etc

I love the idea. Very chic. :thumbup:

[napoleonlafy]

good idea!

maybe i'll do it too

[fred67]

It is a neat idea (one that I've been toying with for some time - actually to make a functional clock tower), but the execution on this one is way too simple.

Although I'd like to answer "what time is it?" with something like "it's half past batman."

[Israel Hands]

Yeah, that's my main issue. The idea is simple, but the execution leaves something to be desired. I'm in no hurry to make a clock, but it is something I like the sound of.

There's this idea

Haha I like the idea of using minifigs for numbers. You can change it for any season or theme you want to. A great concept.

[fred67]

Those two are much better - I particularly like the first one.

Oh look, it's already panda o'clock! Looks like a fun creation!

I like the use of minifigures as numbers, but I agree that clock is a little basic other than that. The other two clocks look significantly better. Mixing both would definitely be the best.

Here is a cuckoo clock I made a few months back. There is actually a little chicken up in the top, but sadly he is stationary.

The clock mechanism itself is from a craft store.

Wow, that's another neat idea... good job, there, rodiziorobs.
