I have this really cool quartz battery clock that reminds me of a turntable so I decided to redo it to resemble one.

The donor record is a warped 45 of "HAIR" by the Cowsills. this is the documentation of the project, currently in progress.

More to follow...

That is cool. I have made a few Hard drive clocks by putting the hands mechanism though the center of the HD platters. I also made another one with the hands drilled through an old motherboard. :thumbright:

I made one from the jacket of the Flashdance LP once.

He couldn't get my file to open so I have to email it.

I believe I have a good 'tonearm' now so I can finish tonight and will get the rest of the pictures together tonight.

Hang on.

This is to be a GIFT, you know!

It goes with a 1937 Coronado tombstone they wanted.

FARM SET!
