Wall Clock
Does anyone know of a website where I find parts to make a custom wall clock?
I also want to know if it is possible to get parts to build a flip-card clock.
I'd never heard of a "flip-card' clock before but the DH says it has individual flat pieces with hours or minutes (or date, I presume) which are hinged at the top. As the minutes go by, the next minute tile is flipped down over the previous one, etc.
He hasn't hear of those as wall units (only for desktops), but guess you could make them larger if you could buy the mechanism somewhere... maybe Edmund Scientific?
The mechanism almost sounds like a similar one to the paper-punched rolls that used to be used for player pianos (or maybe even for making textile patterns, etc.) or a cam or something, but I think you'd probably have to either know a bit about watchmaking and electronics to make your own, or perhaps buy a small one and see if you could adapt it to larger tiles, etc.
Here are lots of sites that have flip clocks, and some may have mechanisms too:
