Status: offline 		Some time back there was a magazine article about how to construct a starting clock for races.

I seem to have misplaced my copy of the article. Does anyone have a PDF version of something like this?

Thanks,

I have had questions about count down clocks for starting races and when
I went to try to find out how the few that there were came to be I
couldn't find anyone who knew exactly how they came upon the mechanism. I
have a source of a robust 60 second mechanism that cocks and locks and is
released by the push of a small button near the center of the clock. I
offer clocks custom built like the photo herewith for $85.00 plus
shipping. You might pass the message on if you would.
