Custom enclosure for Wise Clock 4

John, aka broHogan, the creator of DIYGeigerKit, skillfully built a nice enclosure for his Wise Clock 4, a potential inspiration to others. From his email:

The case is made from Cocobolo (rosewood) from a slab I bought in Costa Rica. The splines are ebony. In about a year it will turn a nice deep red.


It's really not this brown,


more like this.
Buttons also cocobolo. Holes drilled in the ends go over pushbuttons.


The router jig used to cut the slots for the splines.


And this reminds me of a joke. How do you double the value of a Jugo car? You fill up the tank. Got it? :)

Thanks John, I really appreciate it.

Fritzing: an Electronic Design Automation software

Image
Fritzing is an open-source initiative to support designers, artists, researchers and hobbyists to take the step from physical prototyping to actual product. We are creating this software in the spirit of Processing and Arduino, developing a tool that allows users to document their Arduino and other electronic-based prototypes, and to create a PCB layout for manufacturing. The complementing website helps users to share and discuss drafts and experiences as well as to reduce manufacturing costs. Fritzing is essentially an Electronic Design Automation software with a low entry barrier, suited for the needs of designers and artists. It uses the metaphor of the breadboard, so that it is easy to transfer your hardware sketch to the software. From there it is possible to create PCB layouts for turning it into a robust PCB yourself or by help of a manufacturer. Why Fritzing is needed Physical prototyping tools have come a long way and already allow non-engineers to quickly turn their ideas in
