A couple of things you should keep in mind before you buy a clock kit though are the amount of money you are willing to spend, and what you want the clock kit to look like. Keep in mind that you will have to pay for shipping as well. The clock kits come with very good instructions in most cases, and don’t require a lot of time to put them together.
