Default Wanted - a HUGE digital clock

I've had zero success in finding a MASSIVE digital clock. I'm after something with digits about 8 inches tall, preferably LED not LCD. Perhaps there is a clock circuit I can buy or build and huge digits I can buy? Or maybe make the digits myself out of loads of LEDs? Any ideas?


I made a PCB containing 3 digits (and a '1' digit plus a slash
character) all from strings of red LEDs. It also had a LED
clock chip. This was about 16 years ago so I am sure the LED
clock chip is no longer available. Your local thrift store
probably sells N+1 LED clocks good for the critical parts.
