Hi Daniel

as far as I see you are at a good point. This part is well done and it was not so easy to do. I took a look to your button press detect routine. I will warn you about the risk of bouncing. Maybe the worth to use at least a software debouncer?

Hey Daniel, good to see some progress on the clock. You should be able to run those little 24BYJ48A motors from an arduino with the Darlington driver board you get with them, a H-Bridge should not be necessary.

The 24BYJ48A has a big gearbox on it so it can do approx 4075 steps per revolution. If it is behaving a little eratically then check that the pins order is actually as expected. My final thought is there are other libraries you can play with, I based my Topsy Turvy clock on the Arduino Playground - CustomStepper from Igor Campos, it works asynchronously so you have to call "run()" in your loop. So it should play better with your interupt based code.
