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
• Once all numerals are complete, if there's still interest then some can be replaced with new ones
• Hands and clock body can be replaced too, but only once all numerals are done
• Update this page to reflect any changes you make
