Upside Down Clock Hack

at 5:24 am. Filed under DIY Hacks, Electronic Hacks

Ever want to flip a display, it may be easy to say but hard to do. That was the case with Steve’s clock. :)

“So, while i was setting up my stuff in my dorm room the other day, i faced a delima. We moved our dressers, and i no longer had a place to put my clock to put it on the same level as my bed (my bed is 4 feet off the ground, and we used to have the two dressers on top of each other). Mike suggested that i just take a strip of duck tape, and just tape it to the wall. I thought about that, but decided not to because then i couldn’t get to the switches to turn the alarm on/off. So as a joke, i asked, “How hard would it be to flip the led display upside down, so i could tape it to the bottom of my shelf?” And stupidly they answered, “Not hard at all” Well, 4 hours,lots of burnt fingers, and 1.5 extended magazine glue gun glue sticks later …”
