I’m designing a digital orrery display to join the rest of my collection of clocks that don’t tell time. No pics of it yet but you can see the others here: Https://digitalhorology.…

For example, the project I’m working on today… People have made orreries (rotating solar system models) for centuries. I’m designing a digital version with over 600 LEDs. It’s a ma…

Why would he block cup holder access with a big steel bar?

I know! It took most of this summer to get my tide clock to predict accurately, using NOAA harmonic constituents data crammed into an Arduino, a GPS module, and published formulas.…

How about adding a column with a count of comments so we can sort and get a rough idea of the most popular posts?

Thanks! I'm really glad you like the LunaKron. I make a couple other versions that have less wood aesthetic and more futuristic black acrylic with a photorealistic, silvery moon. I…

Putting the marker inside the tide curve would give it a cleaner look. I considered it, and figured it was more legible to have the hour marker directly under the numbers. People l…

Thanks! I posted the story here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/DigitalHorology?#about

I'm launching a new product for my clock-making business: https://DigitalHorology.com None of my clocks tell the time. They're all fully automatic GPS-enabled timepieces. For a cou…

I'm building an automatic tide prediction clock that doesn't need an internet connection.

I made this one to brighten up any office: https://digitalhorology.etsy.com/listing/1644589175

It’s always nice to find another true lunatic. I made a series of clocks that only track moon phase. https://digitalhorology.com

In Soviet Russia, monitor monitors YOU. Bwah hah hah!

Howtoware looks like a rabbit hole for me. Thanks for the tip! I sell my hardware projects on Etsy, mostly LunaKrons, the GPS-enabled moon phase clocks, and also a few “Game of Lif…

I’m boxing up LunaKrons to get ahead of this year’s gifting rush, and I’m really pleased with how the packaging is turning out.

Thanks! It’s a side hustle. Haven’t looked into scaling up.

I design and build GPS-synched moon phase clocks (“LunaKron”) & other electronic novelties, and sell them on Etsy. I’ve consulted with ChatGPT when I need help choosing materials a…

Great article! I'm especially interested because I make weird clocks & digital displays too. Https://digitalhorology.com

I love it! I’m also pretty excited about Game Of Life. I made this: https://digitalhorology.etsy.com/listing/1644589175

Hey Andrew! Try this: If you make the grid pixels square and drop a sheet of translucent acrylic on top of that, the effect is pretty cool. Here's a "Game of Life" display I made u…

Https://headlamptest.com It’s a Chrome extension that shows me what web page elements I’ve missed in testing.

Here’s another upvote for rural life: I live on an island in WA state, USA. I’ve got a spectacular view of Admiralty Inlet & the Olympic Mountains, and a workshop big enough for my…

Https://HeadlampTest.com Made it to scratch my own itch.

I am early 50’s, retired software engineer, and having a blast designing and building weird GPS clocks and digital toys. ( https://digitalhorology.com ) The transition was easy. As…

Thanks for sharing, mainly because I’ve felt like an idiot for utterly failing at marketing my tool ( https://HeadlampTest.com ) online to developers & testers. I get great results…
