A Clock

I wanted a clock for the garage and the dollar store seemed like a good place to find one. Unfortunately, all they had where clocks with pictures of hockey players. Thinking that this would send to wrong message, I decided to make a new background for the clock. I'm kinda shit when it comes to artistic endeavours, but I can draw mechanical things with one eye closed and a thumb up my a**. (Not that I've ever tried, I'm only supposing I could do it) So, I figured a planetary gear train might make it look acceptable for the garage. The upshot is that there are 60 gear teeth in the ring gear thus counting out the minutes quite accurately!
 Here it is in all its grainy black and white artsy self.
