I didn’t realize it would be this easy to build a timer within Arduino. This is not the LED blink code! It’s pretty much based of skyl4rk’s post in this thread.

Eventually we need to somehow connect the Arduino with the user interface to have it control the timer.

As far as the prototype goes, it works for now but it needs to be more robust since the clock is very rudimentary.
