Ilove the ESP8266 Double Wide Marquee Scroller News Weather Clock but I wanted to do a couple of things differently.
- I wanted to mount it on an elevated pole mount using OpenBeam parts
- I didn't want to solder directly to the display board
To achieve these goals I modified two parts from the original referenced above.
For goal #1 I modified the center piece and gave it an OpenBeam-compatible slot. This lets you drop it onto the top of a piece of 15x15 OpenBeam v-slot. I decided to leave all of the rest of the parts alone and keep the angled base parts so you can remove the clock from the OpenBeam pole and set it on your desk without reprinting everything.
For goal #2 I modified the right end piece and gave it a hole all the way through so you can connector the LED board and have enough room. The wires stick out a little from the edge and while not as clean and refined as the original I think it still looks pretty cool.
I've also included the OpenBeam base shown in the photo. I cooked it up a while ago and it works well for this type of thing.
