Title: a simple clock (for those without)
Post by: MrFryMoto on January 12, 2009, 06:15:39 PM
Artscow.com was having a sale - $5.99 for a custom 'keychain watch' shipped

i uploaded a logo and week or so later i received this.

i took the keychain off (easy) and attached some velcro

going to be hard to read at night and at speed, but it's better than nothin - and cheap too!

I predict it vibrating to pieces within the first 100 miles.   ;D

Velcro should be a good-enough shock absorber (poor vibration conductor?) to keep that from happening.

Place your bets now! [evil]

shit, 100 miles of vibration? more like 10 miles before it gets jacked, if theres some random youth and enough bordem he might just try to tug and see what happens lol it looks like its just sitting there.
