I'm back...

A project log for Clock Clock

My attempt to put together a digital clock made of analog clocks, as originally created by Humans since 1982 and David Cox

Wow...I can't believe it's been 5 years since I started this project.  I'm tempted to write that "life happened" after that, but that's just an excuse for not finishing what I had started.  I'm not sure what got me thinking about the Clock Clock again, but here I am.  I'm going to see if I can pick up where I left off.  I still have all of the parts that I bought.  The code must be lying around here somewhere.  

A quick browse around Hackaday shows that others were able to get this thing made.  I haven't looked into the details of their implementations, yet.  I'll use as much information as I can from successful projects to make this one successful as well.  I'm excited to see how their approaches differed from mine, as well as how they were similar.  But, I'm mostly excited about the prospect of having this project hanging on my wall instead of in my regrets.  This post is meant to serve as a public commitment device that will nudge me to follow through.   I welcome any advice.
