I need help with a project I am doing and I have come here.....hey, if you need answers, go to the best.
I am working on a wooden clock project that works by an electromagnetic pendulum as shown in this youtube video

Being a bit of a glutton for punishment I want to build the clock myself but not as a kit. I want to make the gears etc myself.
I have been in touch with the manufacturer of the clock and he will send me the electronic parts for £65 including.. board, battery holder, coil and magnet.
But I want to make a few clocks for my family..(they saw the video and would like one for themselves)
But making 5 clock would be too expensive.
And this is where my request comes in...
Once I pay for the electronics kit, how would I go about 'reverse engineering' it?
The kit isn't patented so I can copy it. But I know nothing about electronics!!
I am hoping that I could scan the board, post an image here and get some help?...
