About Chuck

Chuck enjoys electronics, coffee, cycling, skiing and scotch, not necessarily in that order. By day Chuck works trying remove bloat-ware from satellite set top boxes. By night he is an embedded software and hardware developer.

Another Clock

Unsatisfied with the last clock and its light scattering acrylic design, I decided to try something with light pipes. I wanted a smaller clock this time, so that meant having two layers of LED strips, and dual layer light pipes. At this point I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves:
