LED Clock

Want to create a unique and futuristic time-telling device? In this video, I'll show you how to 3D print and build your very own ARDUINO controlled addressable LED strip clock! I designed it to have a clean look with a blank face and no sign of segments when they aren't illuminated. Full details, models, and instructions are downloadable below. Assembly tools are even printable. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast, a maker, or just someone who loves innovative gadgets, this tutorial is perfect for you. So, get ready to impress your friends and family with your new 3D printed LED clock!
