Step 1: Lets Work

Firstly get 4 good condition old CDs , or use new. Glue them one by one leaving the mirror side in fron of you using it as a clock disc. Try not to make any glue traces or brake the CDs.

After that follows the clock construction. Its very simple and you will not meet any difficulties. Just follow the image below to do the right things

Now your clock is ready but its empty of decoratives. Ok if you like just keep it like it is. Else follow me at next step...

Step 2: Clock Decorations

Materials.
I Use some chips from old computers to indicate the 12/3/6/9 hours.

Look my clock. I aim to gift to my mother. At her room theres no any clock as i remember...

Merry Christmas to all Istructables....
