This thing is awesome, I wish I had done this with my BS2 printer.

    That's awesome! I want a PlotClock (except it needs a marker that doesn't leave so much residue).

    I like the first example better, it's wood and has better penmanship!!

    Ideally, it's like your custom clock, PhiPi. It runs fast during work hours and compensates by slowing down at lunchtime and after hours.

    It's so simple and has fairly fluid movements, I like it.

    When I first saw "Plotclock" I was thinking it was going to be something to keep you "regular".

    I think that would be a PlopClock. :)
