We finally finished the design of the Servo Wordclock. BOM will be updated soon.

All consumables and lasercut parts are ordered and will arrive soon.

We switched from the curved organic form to a more straight forward classic one. This prototype is designed to be "easy" to built - as far as you can say easy, when everything you build is multiplied by 114 ;-) . The Servo Wordclock is broken down into sub-assamblies to be pre-assambled in order to realise easy and faster building of the Servo Wordclock and in regards of warehousing and service cases.

Here are the pictures of our final design.

(Note that the screen is hidden to allow a better view on the mechanics)

The Housing for the Actuators (shown on last picture) will be printed in two parts and glued together due to print area limitations.

Now the print marathon begins!

We can't wait to finaly get all the parts together to start building this wonderful prototype!
