Lazy 7 / One --- Instructions: https://www.instructables.com/id/Lazy-7-One https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-FHnYGrcV0 <b>Update - 2021/07/17</b> Sketch v7 available. I also recommend having a look at the notes about electronics when building one of my things! https://www.instructables.com/ClockSketch-V7-Part-I/ <b>Update - 2020/07/30</b> Splitted the electronics case STL and added another cover (B) including a hole. In case you want to build the 4 digit version this might be a better choice for wall mounting. <b>Update - 2020/06/01</b> Added draft of sketch v6 which can be compiled for nodeMCU/ESP8266. As formatting/markdown here still doesn't work, please have a look at Step 11 on Instructables for details: https://www.instructables.com/id/S7ripClock-Basic-Edition/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSWppwuDyiE Just when I thought I was finally done with 7 segment modules.... someone came along having specific requirements to one. We ended up building some kind of grid, but it kept me thinking: Is there an easy way to increase led count inside my 7 segment modules without scaling the model to insane sizes? Yes. After mixing some elements of my Lazy Grid Clock and 7 segment modules this is what I ended up with. Mainly I was working on another module but just had to build this smaller version with another question in mind: Can the build be simplified even more compared to my other 7 segment clocks? Yes, this also can be done. This clock is using a single strip of leds, a whopping 252 leds in total. There's just one long piece (4.2m) inside the frame parts and that's it. 8 leds inside each segment, 56 per digit. Width: 40.7cm Height: 14.8cm Depth: 3.8cm 252 LEDs, 1 continuous strip (WS2812B, 60 leds/m, 4.2m) <b>Notes:</b> I've just noticed markdown/formatting doesn't work even when using sections like "Post-Printing" and "Print Settings", not only Custom Sections.... this makes putting up documentation more than tedious because formatting is close to impossible. And the captions from all the pictures won't be shown. So here's the instructions on Instructables, again: https://www.instructables.com/id/Lazy-7-One Added all the files required for a 6 digit version, instructions added to Instructables.
