A wall clock inspired by the James Webb Space Telescope, it has a mirrored film applied to give it the shiny gold appearance. 

This is my first major project using my 3D printer and Solid works, so please don't judge too harshly if there are some silly mistakes!

The clock is assembled from a series of hexagonal modules, with low profile clips holding them together. This gives a nice effect with a consistent spacing between modules. 

The fully assembled clock is approximately 810x880mm (WxH), and stands approximately 25mm from the wall. The wall mounts have holes for 4mm screws, or you can use adhesive if you do not wish to drill into your walls. Besides the gold film, wall mounting screws and clock mechanism, no additional hardware is required.

I recommend using smooth plates to ensure that the surface of the hexagons are flat, which results in the best possible surface for attaching the gold foil.

While I have designed this to be a JWST clock, you can assemble the modules in any way you like! As we all know, hexagons are the bestagons so the modules can fit together in many different shapes and sizes. You can also experiment with different colours or finishes of films and filaments, even using non smooth print beds. I would love to see what others can make of this design!

It is a very large project, taking roughly 1.5kg of PLA and using 23 plates with a total print time of just under 40 hours. I will probably look into designing a smaller version which people are more likely to use. Extra clips are included as they are intentionally tight fitting and so may occasionally fail while assembling.
