I never drink before five o'clock, so I built a handy clock to remind myself when it was OK to start imbibing. You can personalize this by changing the text, or replacing the minute / hour hands with outlines of your favorite drinks.

Instructions

To achieve two-sided cutting, I cut the front out with a square profile, flipped it over, probed off the edges, and cut out the back pocket, and only then cut out the final circular outline. I used a "Seiko High Torque Continuous-Sweep Mini Quartz Movement" high-torque clock mechanism because I was worried that the hands might be too heavy for a regular one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LH5Q88
