3D model description

This Modern Retro Style Desk Clock is easy to print and looks great in any colour combination, and it's also easy to assemble.

I printed all the parts as listed in the print settings and this will be reflected in the g.code. Otherwise use the STL files and print how you see fit.

Orientation of STLs on build plate set to how I printed and would advice left that way for smooth prints.

No supports or brim needed

Follow the PDF to assemble clock or watch the video on TikTok

Tolerance is tight especially on the snap fit back plate, align the bottom tab and then snap the back on, there is a notch at the bottom of back plate to remove it to change battery.

I also advise you test fit the hour/minute hands before full assembly, and whilst assembling hold the clock from the back to stop it moving. Set both hands to the 12 o'clock position before fitting the battery.

Designed in metric units, adjust in your slicer accordingly.

Clock kits available Amazon, you need size 20 mm/0.8 Inches as per image.

Any questions or problems please reach out to me here.
