A friend had a broken pocket watch, gutted it, gave the case to me. I measured it, and did a rough draft of a board with a densitron display, accelerometer, AVR and LED. This is just a first crack at it. I haven’t hooked up any of the power circuitry to the battery and haven’t figured a lot of other things out, but I’ll post things as they come.
