John S. You got an awesome line up of clocks. Very creative. I saw you did a clock design using a BK2000 display ... I love BK2000 and with a subwolfer it sounds as awesome as it looks with the Doug Watson artwork.
But I digress from my original question ... can you make a clock out of a Williams DMD display? I swapped out of my Monster Bash the original Vishay DMD and replaced it with a ColorDMD. You are a bit far from San Francisco, but love your thoughts if making a clock display using a DMD is a doable clock project. I have a doorway with about 18" of clearance between the top of the door and ceiling that I need a long thin clock, and flashed after seeing your designs that maybe my DMD just sitting in a box is useful afterall! Happy holidays and thanks for sharing your work! \r <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> This email has been sent from a virus-free computer protected by Avast. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DDB4FAA8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> On Sun, Dec 27, 2015 at 7:22 AM, Quixotic Nixotic <nixci...@jsdesign.co.uk> wrote: > On 27 Dec 2015, at 05:04, Golferron 54 wrote: > > I have probably gone past the fine line of excessive, to obsessive going > through 41 pins in the last 10 years. > > > Oh please, this is lightweight obsessive.
