Making an unusual and beautiful single-digit clock

whatimade.today improves on Mirko Pavleski’s single-digit clock with a custom PCB and version with different colors.

Generally at whatimade.today we post original projects we dream up ourselves. Today’s post is a little different. We’re going to describe how we constructed Mirko Pavleski’s single-digit clock. We made it because it’s a fun project, wonderfully impressive to look at, and a great design. Not only is the idea original, Mirko’s stl files for 3D printing are excellent, and his coding for the Arduino is very, very, sophisticated.

The original components are clearly itemized in Mirk’s hackster project page and we’d encourage you to go there to give him the traffic he deserves. One extra component we used is an L7808 voltage regulator (with supporting capacitors) that you can read about further down.

See the video below and the build page here.
