Here are the supplies that I used to create the product

Base of Clock

I started with a small square piece of wood. Then I cut a small piece of paper and glued it onto the wood. This helped me position the clock. I set the clock on the paper at about a 45ยบ angle, and once I liked the placement, I let the glue dry.

Next, I took three pieces of wood and glued them around the edges of the square base to create walls. I used super glue and pressed each piece down until it stayed in place. I left the top side open because I needed that space for my next part.

To make the top of the clock, I took two quarter-circle wood pieces and glued them together to make a half circle. To keep it strong, I glued a small piece of wood behind it for support. After that dried, I glued the half circle to the top opening of my wooden box.

Inside the wooden box, I added a small cardboard box to hold the clock parts. I cut velcro strips and glued two inside the wooden box and two on the cardboard box. This made it so I can take the cardboard box in and out easily, which helps access where you set the alarm or if you just need to change the time.

For the final step, I added a coil bracelet that will work to wake up the person wearing it when they go to sleep. I stored it inside the cardboard box, which has a small flap for opening. I glued the base of the coil inside so it stays put, and the bracelet part can be taken out and worn. When the alarm goes off, the coil band vibrates so it helps wake you up!
