Print up some instructions and boxes. Simple I think to do a small run of about 1000. I know I'd buy one (although smaller then in the video, around the same size as the Art Lebeved Verbarius clock (another on my wishlist). And speaking of Art Lebeved why isn't the Folderix thumb drive not available. Pennies to build, Dollars to buy. And they look cool.

If I had the money to invest, this would definitely be a dangerous site for me. As for this clock - it beautifully separates the 'digital' from the digital clock. Very elegant.

Sadly, some of the best stuff is just a ‘concept’ and isn’t actually available for purchase. I seriously believe that Yanko Design need to be the bridge between VC and the designers or something.

Most things shown here are just conceptual designs that the designers never bother to move toward manufacturing. I've always though tho that there could be a very nice business for someone to licence and manage doing small runs of these products and then selling them both on the designers site and maybe here or other design sites.
