Can anyone point me to a circuit diagram and/or a controller chip that will let me build a clock that chimes on the hour? (One chime for 1 o'clock, three chimes for 3 o'clock, etc.) I was thinking of using a solenoid to ping a piece of metal or energy chime... Thanks!
If you want a pretty sound, you may consider a chime rod like they use in older (and some newer) clocks. www.timesavers.com has a fair selection and hammers as well. Here is a direct link to the page in their catalog.
