Man Builds 7-foot Grandfather Clock from Lego

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the snappy-timepieces dept.

Ravalox writes "Eric Harshbarger has built a 7-foot-tall grandfather clock exclusively from Lego. It keeps accurate time and needs no electricity; it needs to be weight reset every 13 hours. Other pictures include the gears, numbers, the face, and the pendulum mechanics."

    The proper terminology is LEGO(R) Bricks, not Lego, not Legos.
    If the LEGO trademark is used at all, it should always be used as an adjective, not as a noun.
    For example, say "MODELS BUILT OF LEGO BRICKS". Never say "MODELS BUILT OF LEGOs". [also from that link at lego.com]
