World's Largest Solderless Clock

Location:   Maker Shed  Maker Shed   

The electronics in this 4-foot wide clock cost less than the lumber! Based on a popular kit, it has 192 LEDs, all powered by a single driver. Not one single LED or wire requires soldering; everything can be twisted with a pair of pliers. Karl will also appear on the Make Demo stage.
