Field notes
The page pairs an interactive day-and-night clock with a scroll-through build sequence, introducing found objects before showing them as named miniatures. Its origin story dates the first scrap tuk-tuk to around 2017, followed by a Club FM appearance and later builds including SEC-95 from a table-tennis ball and BOB-98 from Christmas baubles. The maker says he is self-taught; the site invites custom-build ideas and specifies UAE-only shipping.
