Clock face file

I was looking for a simple clock face, but found nothing. So I made my own

Thanks for sharing!
What material did you use to engrave this design on?

It is a white faced hardboard from https://kitronik.co.uk/. I think it was a clearance offer, but the material is often used as the back panel in fitted kitchen cupboards.
Cheers, Rob

I did something similar using TroTec’s black-on-white acrylic. I took a 24 hour clock and made a face for it that was divided into ten segments, removed the second and minute hands and now my kitchen is on Metric Time, which drives my mother-in-law insane every time she sees it. It serves no other purpose…

Been making clock faces from tiles, working well.

OLM3 diode laser (10w) running at 80%, two pass gives some nice deep etched “pits” in textured tiles.

Some various paints (acrylic, nail polish, etc) dabbed in with a brush or tooth pick. Overflow gets scraped away with a razor blade or some 220 grit sand paper (which doesn’t scratch the tile).

Walnut case for a complete clock

That looks amazing!

Thank you Steven!

Well done, mate, looks incredibly. BTW what’s the font?

Thanks Akuna :smiley:

The font is an Arts & Crafts font, there are hundreds out there. This particular font I could not locate so I just used images from a screen capture and some cleanup with the GIMP editor.
