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...

I'm almost done, have to go down the road to print the 'tonearm' as my ink is about done.
 
I have some more but I think I'll do a complete wrap-up sometime tonight.
 
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.
 
Here is the pic of one of the HD clocks I made.

I thought that was a cymbal for a second...Paiste would be cool...

Pretty interesting!
 
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!
