Make your own Physics Clock

I had seen some quiz clocks in Maths class and Chemistry Labs and I thought I could make a Physics clock displaying some universal constants instead of hour numbers. So I first bought this large black clock from IKEA, and them prepared my constants corresponding to each hour. It took me couple of days to find the most suitable ones, because some were very advanced for high school level. Finally, except the M-theory for 11 dimensions, and Magnetic flux quantum 2.07 x 10^-15 Wb (since it was very close to 2), I found all the hours from the most used physical constants. I wrote and printed them and then pasted on the clock. Here is the photo of my Physics Clock. You can download the word and pdf files and edit as you wish to make your own version. To download files click here. Physics Clock displays time in terms of:
1. Reduced Planck constant 1.05 x 10-34 J s
2. Magnetic flux quantum 2.07 x 10-15 Wb
3. Pi number 3.14
4. Mass of an alpha particle, 4u
5. Jupiter the 5th planet
6. Avogadro number 6.02 x 1023 mol-1
7. Newtonian constant of Gravitation 6.7 x 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2
8. Molar gas constant 8.31 J mol-1 K-1
9. Mass of an electron 9.1 x 10-31 kg
10. Gravitational field strength on Earth 9.81 N/kg
11. M-theory 11 dimensions
12. Magnetic constant 12.5 x 10-7 N A-2
