Day Clock

Sometimes we just need to know what day it is

This was created at the beginning of the pandemic when the two week lockdown was approaching a month and the days were starting to blend together.

For those long quarantine weeks where the days blend together. This clock uses a servo so the clock hand always points at the center of the day, it does not "sweep" through the day smoothly like a normal clock would; at midnight, the hand moves to the next day. Thanks to the gearing, this works with a normal 180 degree servo. Code is included, just update to your WiFi information!
