Expensive Bedside Clock

[thgmirror]

@harney I’m plannig to use an old case of a router to build something similar like you did, so there will be also some jokes from my family!
Did you include a speaker at the rear side, or just a fan?

[harney]

@thgmirror Just the fan. I put a hole in the top for a set of headphones so I don’t disturb my partner, although it rarely gets used for anything other than a clock and phone charger.

Thats really awsome!

@harney

That’s pretty slick.

Just how expensive was it?

[harney]

@mykle1 Well, Based on Australian Dollars>

Raspberry Pi 4 4gb - $105
4.3" DSI Screen - $ 80
Noctua Fan - $ 27
3D Print (Material) $ 8

TOTAL $220

Enjoyment building $priceless LOL

@harney This is very cool! Are you offering the STL’s for printing? That would be great!

[harney]

@cowboysdude I will be. I’m currently doing a Tutorial on Instructables for it with all background code for dimming and LED control, and important dimensions to fit in the case. I will link to the three files used in it.

When it’s done, I will post a link on this thread

@harney Looks cool! I want to do something like that in a wood case sometime

[Fozi]

@cowboysdude 🤣 you sound like the guys on Reddit. I‘d second this!
