Re: Magazine projects
60 Old John, thank you for your very kind offer, sadly I sent my clock to the great clock graveyard as until I opened it I'd forgotten it was on Perf Board and sadly my eyesight isn't up to the challenge any more !
However, it is good to know someone else built one of these clocks and that it still soldiers on 47 years later. |

Re: Magazine projects
Yes I am very pleased with it, after getting over my initial disappointment. First switch on I set it to count in seconds an watched as it counted 38-39-40-0 oops 40 seconds in a minute / 40 minutes an hour? Switched it off for 20 seconds, switched on again and it worked ok. About one in twenty switch on's after a power cut results in a wrong count. Once in the correct count works well.
John.
