3D printed smart clock that puts a new twist on old technology.

The first thing that must be done for this project is to obtain all the materials that will be used. The list of things needed in this project are:

  • Raspberry Pi Zero W (or any raspberry pi)
  • Adequate Power Supply for Pi
  • Stepper Motors (linked below)
  • 3D printer and filament
  • Wire
  • Ability to Solder
  • Glue
  • Mechanical key switch from a keyboard

This design uses 4 stepper motors that can be powered using a Raspberry Pi. An external power supply is better, however they will work fine without one. The motors that I used in this project are the 28byj-48 steppers. They can be powered using 5v.

They can be found on
