I made a clock! I designed the thing in Illustrator and sent it off to Ponoko for laser cutting. Got it back, put it together, and voila, a clock!

Ghanta Ghar also known as the clock tower of Rajasthan was constructed by the Late Shri Sardar Singh Ji of Jodhpur.[1][2] Beside the tower, there in the Sadar Market that is frequented by tourists on shopping spree. From this market, tourists can purchase Rajasthani textiles, clay figurines, miniature camels and elephants, marble inlay work and classic silver jewellery.
The clock, created by John Flanagan (1865-1952), is constructed of a variety of brilliantly colored precious marbles against a mosaic background encircled by the signs of the zodiac in bronze. Above the clock a life-size figure of Father Time, executed in bronze, strides forward with scythe in hand.
To the left and right are the figures of maidens with children representing the seasons. The dial of the clock is approximately four feet in diameter and in the center is a gilt glory, or sunburst. The hands of the clock, which are also gilded, are jeweled with semiprecious stones.
Wishing you all the best for 2013.
Thank you all so much for the kind comments, your support and interest!
The clock was designed and built in Waltham, Massachusetts and it's been kept running for over a hundred years.

Product photography for a client that needed clean and simple shots of different items, this was a part of a clock collection with a kinds of clocks, old and new.
after an alarm clock malfunction this morning, I got a new one. It will play me "Here Comes The Sun" tomorrow morning. (hey, I had to do something with my iPod classic after upgrading to an iTouch)

IKEA clock parts: $2
guitar clock: awesome!
*don't worry, the guitar lived a fruitful life and died a natural, albeit tragic, death
With the risk of enraging the community I am applying this photo to the collection. I must hereby swear that this photo was taken by me although not with my own camera!
Due to the pressing deadline I prefer to submit this photo titled "University clock" and subtitled "Pretty blond in B&W"!
I must also add that all the postprocessing work (far from perfect) has been done in Aperture!
200 day clock, German-made Haller. This is an unusual torsion clock which is designed to run for only 200 days instead of the usual 400 days. There is an unique slip-mechanism for winding up the main spring which prevent overwinding (just like a mechanical watch) not commonly found in most design. Gold colour finish throughout and a standard 400 day clock flora face. The 4 support columns (usually there are 2) is another unique feature of this clock. This is a modern '400 day' clock made in the late 90’s. This must be one of the very last mechanical torsion clock ever produced by Haller or for that matter, any mfg in the world. About 12 “ tall under glass dome cover. I bought it brand new in 2002

Only Time will tell and every clock tells a story....

It was a non-working clock which I wanted to hang up for display. After a while, I felt something amiss. A clock is not a clock if it does'nt work! So I took it apart and do some fixing, to my surprise I managed to get it ticking again ! I was totally fascinated From there I got my second, third and so on....
My favourite has to be the 400 day clock
Amazing time piece and fun to repair Next in line is those of the electromechanical design type
I love the working principles
At the time of writing, my collection is still growing....but has grind to a halt as my interest is now focus on nature photography
