I repaired my automatic transmission and bought a broken Gearbox 4f27e for ~ $50 and torque converter was odd to me. But you can find it defective in service station for $ 10-20 (at least in Russia). I opened it using a circular saw. Of one thing, there are two bases for clocks. I laundered it from oil dishwashing soap.

Disassembly Ordinary Clocks

I bought a very simple wall clock for $3 and pulled out their gear and hour hand.

It's very simple. I'm stuck in the center of the disc mechanism of thermal glue and set hour hand on the other side. Сlock hands had to bend a little, as it is not placed in an irregular shape clock face.

Fix on Wall

I tied to the clock wire to hang on the wall. That's all. Possibly need to paint clockwise to contrast. Sorry for my English, I studied it in Hollywood movies.
