Glow in the Dark Clock

The purpose for this project was two fold. I wanted to design and build a simple wooden clock and I wanted to prove that those videos of brilliant blue, glow in the dark wood tables was likely not what they looked like in reality. The clock was cut on the CNC. I cut the lettering and the hole from the front and then made a space in the back for the clock mechanism with a separate carve from the back. I then filled all the lettering with glow in the dark pigmented epoxy. You can of course view it very clearly in the dark if you shine a black light on it for a few minutes to charge it but it fades quickly. Would probably work nicely for a cosmic bowling lane. Still looks good as just an epoxy filled clock pattern.
