[OC] My dad collects watches, so I'm making him a giant one for fathers day.

It works too! I fit a movement in behind the face.

I didn't design this print. I modified the one that can be found here to feature my dad's initials on the watch face: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:619550

How do we really know that's a giant watch, and OP didn't just get a bunch of miniature tools to trick us!

Ya! OP's a big fat phony! Even made a miniature watch to try and fool us!

Didn't you post this a couple of days ago? How come you deleted it?

The mods deleted it because it didn't include "[OC]" as a prefix.

Well that's pretty weird given you can edit titles

I don't know what to tell you. I'm sorry if this has negatively impacted your day in any way.

Sorry if it came across like it, but I'm not having a go at you or anything

I just think the mod deleting a post for what could have been a title change is kinda odd behaviour from them, perhaps they didn't know it was possible? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

As a rule, mods have very little in their life. Exerting power here is peaking.

I just watched the episode of Community where a guy makes this exact mistake and never gets the giant matching fist he needs.

That is a really thoughtful gift. I'm sure your dad deserves this love from you. :)
