My First Box of Cigars - Now a Clock!

The first box of cigars I purchased was a box of Punch Maduros.  Got them from JR cigars. As the first box I'd purchased, it was a bit special to me. I wanted it to become more than another junk/cutters/lighters/whatever box.

After a bit of searching, I decided on a clock.

The components were fairly simple:
  • A clock motor kit from Hobby Lobby
  • Some clock numbers
  • Extra clock hands
  • The cigar box itself
I changed the clock hands from the gold ones it came with to black ones. They stood out better from the Punch logo on the center of the box.





















Keeps time and looks snazzy. I keep meaning to move the 6 back into black space, but I'm afraid the glue will tear the paper/paint of the box.


I hope you enjoyed this project. Let me know if you have any questions.

This is a craft and I'm a man, dammit.
