[[File:kitchclockKitchenClockJune2019.jpg|thumb|300px|The new clock mounted on the wall]] We're making a new kitchen clock that should showcase a wide variety of manufacturing techniques that we have available at rLab. The idea is that each numeral on the clock will be made by a different person using a different method. If you're up for making one of the numerals then please have a go!

* Numerals can be Arabic, Roman, or English words
* Any font or style is OK
* Numerals should be very roughly 75mm high and ideally should stand no more than 25mm proud of the wall.
* Numerals should be placed about 300mm from the edge of the clock bezel and fixed to the wall using removable sticky pads
* Numerals should be made at rLab, using equipment we have
* If your part requires power to operate it must be solar or long-life battery, no wires to external power sources
* If you have a good idea, the existing numerals can and should be replaced from time to time
* Hands and clock body can be replaced too
* Update this page to reflect any changes you make
