Morse Code Clock
It seems that no one uses Morse code anymore, I don’t even think the military teaches it like they did. Well you can be the lone man that stands against progress. Just make yourself the Morse Code Clock and you’ll keep your knowledge a whole lot more fresh. You never know when that could come in handy, come some apocalyptic situation and you might just have to teach the world how to use it all over again.
The clock works by just tapping it on the top when you’re ready to learn the time. After you tap it, it’ll show you what time it is by lighting up in a Morse code sequence. Of course you will be in danger of looking like a know it all when your friends ask you the time and you whip out your Morse Code Clock. You can look into how to do this by going here and you can watch a video of it in action by going here.

Hi Ally,
I am the builder, and I got a belly laugh from your post.
Thanks for featuring it!

You’d be surprised at how many people use CW. Amatuer Radio is alive and well. The license no longer requires you to learn code, but more people are learning it everyday as it is a very efficient use of band-width for long-distance communication.
Sincerely,

Indeed, we had some out on the Falkland Islands watching penguins and sometimes we’d use code when the interference was too bad to hear what they were saying clearly. Anyways, this sounds like a nice little teaching toy.
