Reflection

Until I thought of what to base my clock off of, that was the most difficult part of the project. The actual modeling took less than 30 minutes, and then the laser cut was quick to finish. Ultimately, I learned that things like this, no matter how simple they may or may not be, take a considerable amount of time and iteration. If I were to do this again, I would probably make the clock out of 2 different layers of birch plywood and rotate one of them to better mimic the effect of the wheel spokes. I would also make a more substantial attempt to engrave certain elements, like the numbers. I would also consider cutting my own clock hands to better fit the overall design theme of the clock. Most importantly, I would allot myself more time to design and iterate on the project.
