I've been looking at this clock for a while and I decided I could do it by myself....this is a present for my sister in law....

this is a clock made by a designer I can't afford and which is very hard to found today in its original form....try....


I should classify this instructable in the ikea or designers hacks.....

go to the local supermarket and get a nice can (mine contained canellonis....), keep the opening ring to make the suspension system....

then find a cook whip and a hook to hang the whip (this can be easily replaced by a piece of wire...)

you will also need a clock mechanism and a few nuts and bolts.....

Really cool clock. I wonder if there might be a way to have the whisk move with the clock movements. Really neat instructable.

this clock mechanism is of the cheapest form, It would look much better with a higher quality one.....
