Succulent Clock - Advanced

Keeping track of time with plants!

This is the Succulent Clock. A 3D printable plant that keeps track of time. The 3 tiers each serve as one of the hands of the clock. It is spun by a built in clock mechanism. (41/64 inch)

This clock was super fun to make, I know my mom will love it when Christmas comes around! Since the recommended clock motor comes in a pack of 2, I’m definitely going to make one for myself as well!

I thought this print was a good opportunity to take advantage of using support filament. It worked great to get a better bottom surface on the "hands" using it as the interface material. This print makes for a cute desktop faux plant with a functional twist of it being a clock!

Finally got around to making one of these! Pretty easy to read once you get the hang of it. It's been a hit with folks!

Takes some tinkering to get the clock to not "jam", but once you get it working, it's a beautifully functional desk piece.

For my print I leveraged the AMS to add accent colors to the numbers to make them stand out. Filaments I used are as follows

Pot - AMOLEN Rock PLA in Yellow Feldspar Rock
Dirt - OVERTURE PLA Plus in Chocolate
Plant - OVERTURE PLA in Olive Green
Accents - OVERTURE PLA Matte Light Brown

I painted over the numbers with a lighter green. Forgive the bad painting job. I am not very good. But it works well.
