Punjabi Number Clock with Illumination..

My dad saw this clock for 1$, and I thought I’d try to modify it somehow, so we got it. I wanted to change the background, because I it looked boring and unattractive. I also wanted a clock with punjabi numbers. First I opened it up, and took it apart. I removed the background printing, and scanned it into the computer. Then I used photoshop to add punjabi numbers. I realized I might as well add a cool background too. So I looked at some pictures and stuff, and I decided to use my Blasted Khanda design as the background. Then I printed it and cut it out. Next I inserted this new piece on top of the old one. Might as well throw a LED in too, just to make it look cool, and readable in the dark. So i cut a spot in the bottom and added a blue LED. I connected it to a 3V wall outlet adapter and made a slit in the back for the wire to come through. Then I put everything back together. Alternatively I could’ve had the LED be solar powered so it would charge all day and turn on automatically at night. A battery could have been used as well, but for now I decided just to plug it in.

Here’s the original clock:

And here’s the modified version:
