The Brass Thumb Pomodoro is a steampunk-style desk timer that rewards a completed 25-minute work session by popping a thumbs-up figure out of its case. A side switch selects work or rest mode, with five-minute breaks between sessions.
Maker Krzysztof Jamroz built the USB-powered device with Arduino electronics and 3D-printed parts. Assembly instructions and code are available on GitHub.
