Laser cutters 3D printers and CNC routers lend themselves nicely to making custom clocks. However, it can be difficult to find the parts you need at a reasonable price, or information on how to build and troubleshoot clocks (especially mechanical ones).
So I decided to start a new Google+ community called Clock Repair Resources. It is a place to get information on how to repair clocks, as well as a source of parts for the hobbiest.
