Slide rule clock prototype

Mitch writes in about Greg Blonder, who made this prototype slide rule clock with LEGO Mindstorms. The positioning of the two rules makes up the hours and minutes. I like the idea of sketching in a platform like Mindstorms; it sure beats building an entire custom circuit just for a proof-of-concept prototype.
