I got a question about my BadClock™: don't the gears destroy themselves when you move the hands independently. Of course not. It is a digital clock. It doesn't have gears. Don't be silly. There is a risk of winding it up too much though. It locks up the whole gear mechanism and all that energy...

The worst thing is, you don't know how much to wind it. You simply can't tell. If you don't wind it enough it will start to run slowly. If you wind it too much... And yes, I already have rotary encoder that I am going to attach to the back. So you can actually physically wind it up.
