Fox wall clock

This clock is modeled to work with the clockwork from an IKEA TROMMA clock (clockwork size 56x56mm). If you want to use another clockwork you might have to modify the hands and/or the clockwork plate.

Versions and parts

All parts have a suffix in the file name describing which version(s) it is made for.

_All

These parts are needed for all versions.

_Normal

These parts are needed for the normal version of the clock. This requires a build area of at least 250x150mm.

_Split

These parts are a split version of the Normal version which fits on smaller printers. Requires a build area of at least 170x170mm.

_LED

Parts for a thicker version of the clock which has room for an LED strip (max 14mm wide, 30cm long) behide the clock face.

_Optional

Optional part used to make it easier to mark nail positions in the wall to ensure the clock will be horizontal.

Additional materials

In addition to the printed parts you will need the following:

• A compatible clockwork, e.g. from an IKEA TROMMA clock
• Glue

Printing

Use a perimiter width of 0.8mm or lower if you want the overlap of teh outlines to hide the preimiters of the other parts.

All versions

Print all parts with suffix _All in the file name.

Clock face

Add a color change for the numbers.

For LED version, make sure the filament you are using is translucent enough.

Clock hands

These are modeled to fit the clockwork from an IKEA TROMMA clock and are modeled without any tolerance. If the fit is too tight you can either sand i down or scale it up a very small amount in your slicer.

Normal version

Print all parts with suffix _Normal.

Split version

Print all parts with suffix _Split.

The outlines models contain a segment with a 0.4mm wide perimiter which might be ignored by your slicer. In this case you need to enable the setting Detect thin walls in PrusaSlicer (requires Advanced or Expoert mode enabled), or corresponding setting if you are using another slicer.

LED version

Print all parts with suffix _LED.

LedRing

This part is only 0.8mm thick and should be printed with a brim.

Assembly

Tip: Lay the pieces in place and apply a thin line of glue along the back side edge of each part. This reduces the risk of getting glue residue on the front.

Step 1

Lay the outlines on a flat surface and glue the following parts to them:

• Face
• Body
• Ears
• Tail

Step 2 

1. Glue the clock face to the outlines
2. (LED version only)
   1. Attach the LED strip to the inside of the LED ring
   2. Glue the LED ring to the outlines on the back of the clockface
3. Glue the clockwork plate to the outlines on the back of the clockface/LED ring

Step 3

Glue the eyes and nose to the face

Step 4 (Split version only)

Attach the two outline parts (body and face) with the outlines connector, use glue if necessary.

Step 5

Insert the clockwork and attach the hands.
