      Appreciate the fact it works at all, with how small it is with just one motor per number! Like the guy said appreciate the mechanics.

      Matej Sommer Well, it started on 0:50, so then it would be 10:00:53.

      EDIT: never mind, it stopped 15 seconds before the video ended, making you correct.

    SAW Movies need timers like these. These will fuck up the anxiety of the victims and audience.

    Pay no attention to the naysayers who have no imagination or appreciation of clever design. This is great!

    Le temps qu'il affiche le bon numéro, la minute est déjà passée !
    Non je plaisante, très belle création !
    The time it displays the right number, the minute has already passed !

    Reading the comments, it seems people think it's too slow and noisy. Methinks they miss the point of making a clock out of Lego. It's not for telling the time with. Rather, it's a fascinating tribute to the beauty of Lego itself.
