Everything should be dry by now (next day). It is time to make sure the platters are free of any glue or marks. Also check between the platters and the separation rings. Windex is great for getting everything looking better.

Pull out the clock numbers now. The first picture I have the original small black numbers (on the bottom) that I was planning on using. These work great if you want all 12 hours put on the clock. I, however, couldn't pass up the cool looking silver numbers from Hobby Lobby. These numbers are too big and you can only put on 12, 3, 6, & 9 O'clock. All of the numbers have self-adhesive on them.

Some examples of the clock numbers and hands I found:
Small 1/2" black numbers = $1.45
Large numbers = $4.99
Extra clock hands = $1.99

Set the clock at 12:00. Add the one to the left of the hour and minute hand. Add the two to the right of the hour and minute hand. Then move the clock to 3:00. Put the three right on the center of the hour hand. Do the same to 6:00 and 9:00.
