Analog LED Clock next version

DIY electronics is all about revisions. Make something work the first time and make it look nice the second time around. We featured this Analog LED Clock last year, cosmetically it looked fine and worked great. Wellyb00t has been hard at work making a new version which you can see on his Youtube channel. Instructions and details on the clock can be found here. Via: HG Comments
