To date, all Tick Tock Timers have been exclusively installed in CAN/USA Schools & Factories, as well as a few other random US institutions (including a US Army Barracks).

Being located in Australia I have not seen any of this installations and have never received any feedback from customers due to selling straight to a distributor in Canada.

That all changed this week when a work colleague of mine discoverer one of the Tick Tock Timers on my desk at work which I had been running for testing purposed during the day. ( Yes I have a day job )

it just so happened his wife is the principle of a locale primary school who were currently looking for a more modern school bell timer since there current one couldn't handle different bell times on different days as well being very basic and easy to completely reset by accident.

Within a few minutes of discussion a Tick Tock Timer had been sold to Shelley Primary School WA and I found myself in the shoes of a school bell timer installation technician! (as opposed to developer)

This is what I was up against. It had been running for over 10 years with decent time accuracy...quite impressive really...but quite out dated and limited.

After inspecting the old timer installation I realize that the Tick Tock Timer needed a flush mounting bezel of sorts. I had over looked this.

I spent the weekend designing and 3D printing a flush mounting solution.

Now that I had a mounting solution sorted it was time to install the Tick Tock Timer.

After removing the Frontier Timer timer, installing a large box, tinkering with the crazy wiring mess behind it for over an hour or 2 I had the Tick Tock Timer installed.

After showing the principle I had already pre programmed the bell schedule including the early Wednesday finish, set a 4 digit PIN code on the menu to lock it out, added in school period holidays and set the manual school bell manual ring time to 5 seconds she was absolutely blown away by the product.

When I mentioned I had 3D printed all of the plastic housing including the mounting bezel she pulled a blank stair and said "oh that nice..." ...Not sure she knew what I mean by that.
