Refined clock sketch - OBDF211

Image
 I have labeled my intended process. One thing I’m still not sure of is size and material thickness, I will need help with figuring out optimal thickness for walls and I need to see the clock hands to visualize overall size!  I intend to use mostly glue or resin as attachments, along with fit connections for the drawers. Once I finalize size I will decide what I use for the drawers handles, they may end up being screwed in. 

Clock Brainstorming - OBDF211

I am struggling to conceptualize how to make these clocks, and it's effecting my ability to come up with ideas I am happy with. These are initial ideas, but I am unsure about my relationship to any of them, and I also have a lot of doubt that I will be able to execute any of the ideas.   ​

Prototype and Wazer Guide - OBDF 211

After laser cutting the file, I decided that I was unhappy with the parts the fold inwards and chose to widen the band a bit. I also chose to modify where the perforation lines were, and I intend to score rather than have as much perforation as there is on my paper model. I made sure my corners lined up properly with the kerf, as the paper model ended up with imprecise diamond areas due to an overlap between my perforation lines and the section that was cut away.
