Prototyping clock cases with Lego #Making #Clocks #Lego

Most electronics, even prototypes, can be easily enclosed with Lego. And that means no screws, no glue, no fasteners, zero tools, just the bricks and some imagination. The Wise Time with Arduino blog looks at enclosing clock projects:

(Above), the HDSP clock variant with 1″ displays driven by HT16K33. The board was cut and filed (0.5mm on each side) to fit snug between the walls.

(They) can be mounted on a Lego wall (as found in schools) or they can desk-stand on their own.

(The) enclosures feel solid: nothing moves or rattles when upside down or even shaken. I did not try dropping them though 🙂
