LED Clock made from wood? yes

http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/t...wood-led-clock



When turned off, this clock looks just like a regular block of wood. Once powered up, the LED lights display the time on this still regular looking block of wood. Time adjustment knobs and a “power adapter” jack can be found on the back. These wooden clocks are made by Japanese company Takumi and are available now from Dynamism at the price of $379.99 USD. Now the only question I have is, why?

I guess they figure that it would look more natural than a cheap plastic cover.

For that price I would buy a Xbox 360..... with LED's and cheap plastic covers..... it'll tell me the time on the tv screen, where I focus the majority of my attention...
