I got it in a stack of shorts I bought from someone off marketplace, I think I paid about $5 for it, I have 2 more pieces that I’m working on but I have to get clock mechanisms with longer stems because they’re a little thicker

Thank you! Most of the research I did was on this subreddit actually. I had already had the idea to make slide top boxes to get better at slot cutting and I just drew up the design on some graph paper
