      CodeGuru looks at how to make a clock using Arduino. A good starter project for someone with Arduino.

          So did the kid that started all the crap recently. He did not build anything. He took apart a 1980's clock and repackaged it into a briefcase.

            @JaredBusch all true

            FWIW I started taking stuff apart (lawnmowers in particular) much younger. This is how it begins, the quest for knowledge! I'm stoked for that kid, he's going to get an enormous helping hand in life now. All at the cost of a day's inconvenience and making new friends at a new school (to whom he'll be a minor celebrity)
