Spooky Backwards Spinning Clock Made from Cassette Player Motor

Step 5Secure the Face/Motor Assembly into the Clock Body

OK, I totally ran out of time on this step.

I cut out a piece of styrofoam and duct-taped the motor and the battery pack in. I just made sure that the tape didn't hang up the belt driving the motor. It's not pretty, but it held the motor in place for the duration of our haunted house. Thank the gods for duct tape!

The plastic housing around the motor in my cassette player had screw holes in it. So, if I had time, I could have attached wood or metal strips to the back of the clock and secured the motor to them using the screw holes.
