Long Live the TIX!

The Tix Clock was an awesome timepiece by late inventor and native San Franciscan James Scott Thompson.

Unfortunately the clock stopped being available in 2014, and there has never been something even similar out there since.

Until NOW!! 
(Well... not now..  It's been available for a while now...  Since Sep 2018)

A kiwi hobbyist decided to build his own Tix clock, and now started manufacturing it for the public (It sounds like the blessing of the Thompson family).  He's calling it TIX2, and unlike the original with the all plastic frame, the TIX2 has a nice wooden body which I think makes it look even nicer.
