What is it?
This is a fully functional pendulum clock built entirely from LEGO bricks. It’s inspired by traditional cuckoo clocks, complete with weights, a swinging pendulum, and decorative details like birds, leaves, and wood-style trim. Inside, there’s a small minifigure who “keeps the clock running”—a fun little detail to bring the build to life.
Why did I build it?
I wanted to explore what’s possible with LEGO beyond static models. Building a working pendulum clock was a fun challenge that combined creativity with mechanical design. I also enjoy adding small stories or hidden characters to builds, which is where the minifig with the scythe came in—as if he's the one in charge of keeping time moving.
Why do I believe this would be a great LEGO set?
This clock is a functional and eye-catching piece that would look great on a wall or shelf. It offers a satisfying build experience with moving parts and interesting techniques, while also being a fun conversation piece. It’s ideal for builders who enjoy mechanical LEGO models or want something unique to display at home.
