Wow, great job. The implementation of the slot machine is hilarious. Pleasantly surprised to see how you retained the clock face, and added the 80's-esque digital display. If you do another retro rebuild like this, I'd challenge you to maintain all of the original mechanical inputs. That would have meant a smaller LCD between the two knobs around the clock face, and keeping those cool rollers on the bottom. Just like how you did with the snoozer, demonstrate how to interface with the existing input. One last idea: say the only thing replaced in the bottom panel would be the mechanical FM/AM frequency indicator. A teeny tiny LCD, like a square cm (tbh I don't know how small retail LCDs get) there to display frequency would have been bonkers and inspiring.
It was a tough decision to remove those original parts, they looked really neat! Mainly it was a time crunch but also would have required a lot of mechanical work - those rollers were at a strange angle.

Another great project! Thanks for sharing it with us😀
Glad you liked it!
Anyone else getting Fallout vibes from his projects or just me? Beautiful work and love the out-takes with your kid. Keep up the great work!
thanks for sharing everything, you projects, passion, innovation and knowledge!
This is ART.

The trick to setting the alarm to a time like 5:17 is to first set the clock to 5:17 and then set the alarm to match.
Brilliant idea!
cool, connect it to streaming radio.add a kitchen timer. use a touch display.
Why save a hideous clock radio? 🙂 i build stuff too so I follow.
Thats great. Can we expect more?
More to come!
Id linke to bury a google home into something like that
How did you ‘save’ if you just effectively replaced everything that it was with linux. So dumb
