Drill
While your paint is drying, drill a hole in the spot you marked. I used a 5/16 bit but you'll want to follow the instructions that came with your clock pieces. A drill press is great. A cordless drill will be fine.

Do you absolutely need a drill to do this step? I want to make these for my flatmates and am in university so I don't have a drill handy.

In a university you should have an art department with a sculpture studio and an artist there who will very willingly drill you a hole with a dremel or drill right there on hand. Just take a walk with your book and see what you find!

I just used one of these. Then I stuck a pen through the hole to make it bigger. It looks fine.
