A slim clock

Tall. Slim. Elegant? I hope so...

Perhaps somewhat crazy, but this clock does attract admiration and I am certainly fond of it. The tube fits atop a slender silver pole about 4'6" or 1.4 metres high that is narrower than the tube itself. The base is supported on a trumpet-like foot. Halfway up the stem are the two adjustment switches.

All the electronics are housed in the base of the clock. At first I had problems with the clock dropping spontaneously into editing mode, as if a switch had been pressed. I had too high a value resistor on the pullups to the switches. I changed these resistoras and the clock has been well behaved ever since.
