The ultimate nerd clock!

This is a 3D printed "Stick" version from the Ed Nieuwenhuys Fibonacci clock.

Fibonacci was an Italian mathematician who developed the series of numbers named after him. It was not a normal series of numbers, but one that also often occurs in natural processes. For example in sunflowers and shells. The sequence is simple. Each subsequent number in the series is the sum of the two previous ones: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8,

But a clock? And what does Fibonacci have to do with Mondrian?

The colored areas separated by black lines are immediately reminiscent of Piet Mondriaan's paintings when the primary colors red, yellow and blue are used.
This clock uses colors and surfaces that follow the Fibonacci sequence.

Red + Blue = hours, (Yellow + Blue) x 5 = minutes. The stick above has 1 red + 2 blue areas = 3 o'clock In addition, 3 + 5 = 8 yellow areas + 2 blue areas = 8 + 2 = 10 areas of 5 minutes = 10 x 5 = 50 minutes. 1 + 2 = 3 hours, (8 + 2) x 5 = 50 minutes It is 3:50, ten to four.

Designed with 3D printing in mind so almost no supports needed and 0.2 clearance between parts. Suitable for most printer tolerances.

A guide with electronic parts list, software and how to put it al together you can find on the website from the inventor:

How to print parts and put the lamp together:

You need:

• 6 * Hex bolds M3X30.
• Old Mini USB 5V phone charger or other power supply

Designed with a minimum 30x30cm printbed in mind. Print the long parts in 2 half's diagonal. For smaler printbed's you have to cut the long prints to fit your printbed. User your slicer or other STL editor. I left the Mikey Mouse ears for extra bed adhesion, cut them off.

Please put the right site on the bed to minimize support.

• Print the opaque shades with a white filament and the case + Arduino cover shade with a dark colour to prevent the light to shine trough.
• Print al the parts, follow the instructions fore al the electronics in the link above. Make sure to test the electronics.
• Glue the long and short bottom parts together. Do the same with the top.
• Press the shades in the top half. Click fit. Not the blak Arduino cover.
• Turn around the top half, fit the led holder, place the led strip and fixate whit the clips.
• Place the Arduino, lead the 3 button foil trough the small opening of the bottom half
• Put the LDR in the slot for the hole.
• Find a place fot the clock module
• Close the case with the bolds.

Enjoy the result!
