DIY Retro Pong Clock

By Alex in Gadgets, Hacks & Mods, Home & Garden on Feb 26, 2010 at 4:16 pm

If I weren’t all thumbs, I’d definitely give this one a try: Hardware hacker Limor Fried (Ladyada) of Adafruit Industries has released an open source retro Pong clock for two called the MONOCHRON.

She promised that "even if its your first soldering project, it shouldn’t take more than 2 or 3 hours to put together" but it probably doesn’t include time spent in the ER for soldering my fingers.

    I own a solder gun, have never tried to use it, and have health insurance; it’s like they designed this with me personally in mind!
