Now that the electronics are done - time to tackle the case!  It's made from laser cut ply and was pretty straight forward to put together.   Started with some sanding to tidy up the laser cutting and then dry fit per instructions.  Once that worked it was time for glue and clamps: Left that over night to dry and then sanded again the next morning.  Finshing wise I just used some oil I already had - came up looking pretty nice! I then superglued in the front pieec of perspex.  This was a tight fit thanks to those clamps during the glue up. Next was to hot glue in the PCB and route the LEDs per the instructions. And finally it was time to power it up and set the time!  It's a pretty tight little kit - I'm very impressed!

I was lucky enough to be gifted a Fibonacci Clock kit towards the end of last year (Thank You!) - but thanks to #life have only just got to assembly this weekend. The kit itself is AMAZING in terms of quality.  From the quality of the PCB design including silk screen, to the quality of the electronic components, the build guide, and finally the plywood case supplied.  Initially I thought it might have been the cheaper kits I have built previously - but no this one is just that good.  The following is just a series of photos from building the electronic side.  All through hole stuff.  Well laid out with amazing instructions.  Will turn my attention now to the enclosure.  Pretty slick looking I think:
