Scrabble Clock

  • Completed Project: Scrabble Clock Picture #1

High Scores with a Scrabble Clock

I'll let the clock speak for itself, but I think spelling out the numbers is crucial and I also like how they are randomly placed around the game board.

Here's how to make it:

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    First drill a hole through the center star, when you look at the board, you'll notice it's off center, but I think the star is the place to drill!

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    In order for the board not to fold over onto itself, the back should be braced with a two small wooden rulers. Use wood glue to attach the two pieces, so they cross the middle fold


  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    See the fold: You want to prevent this from moving.

  4. Step 4

    Step 4

    Now use the same wood glue to attach the tiles, use the glue sparingly and quickly remove any glue that seeps from underneath the tile.


  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    Place several heavy books over the top of the tiles, to weight them in place, allow the tiles to dry in place for several hours and perhaps overnight.

  6. Step 6

    Step 6

    Once dry, insert the clock mechanism, assemble the clock and hang that baby!

  7. Step 7

    Step 7

    Finished project, I guess you could also use different words in place of the numbers, as long as they are in the same location.

    Happy National Craft Month!
