Gear Clock

Model

What better way to reuse a worn-out bike gear than to give it new life as a functional clock? 
This piece upcycled some old gears to turn them into a gift for a bike lover. A great piece to display in your home; hanging on the wall or standing on your desk.
If you don't have an old gear laying around, don't worry! I've also added a printable gear that fits perfectly.
