How To: Make a clock projector

Make a clock projector

Time flies. Particularly when it's projected. The magical box in this how-to uses light and mirrors to project the image of a working clock face on any wall. To build your own working clock projector, you'll need the following materials: a mirror, a jeweler's loupe, a clock and a flashlight. For detailed, step-by-step instructions on the assembly process, and to get started on this Daliesque hack yourself, take a look!

Could you make a simalar one that would fit a screen for projecting your comp?

bet you can project photoes with it

probably so.

oh!

I followed the instructions but I could not get this project to work no matter how many tries!!

can someone help with this project?

I found out the problem...the mirror should be a large size. The one I was using was wide but the height was not enough to project an image. When I changed the mirror... wallah...the clock showed up on the ceiling. Thank you so very much for the idea and instructions!!!!

that stuff is crazy but whats a jeweler's loupe

a Jeweller's loupe is a high-power magnifying glass (I think). I know it's a magnifying glass because the French word for it is loupe. So, I would assume that a Jeweller's loupe is a high-power one.
