Roman numeral face for TheGoofy's mechanical clock

thingiverse

I made this in freshman year of college when I wasn't as experienced with 3D modelling and I never posted it until now because for some reason I struggled with get it in stl format and thingiverse won't let you publish unless you have at least one 3D model posted. "IIII" is used instead of "IV" just like on traditional mechanical clocks. This is for two reasons. The first is for symmetry, so that the face is consists of three sections, the first containing only I, the second only I and V, and the third only I and X. The second reason is for clock numbers that are made individually. (such as on cuckoo clocks) The clockmaker would only have to make four sets of XVIIIII to have all the numbers, because having "IIII" instead of "IV" for four allows there to be 20 I's, 4 V's, and 4 X's.
