Where can one get a clock module (red LED) . . . . . .
 
Any know of an off-the-shelf, red LED clock module than can be used in an application like this?:

In principle, yes, but this is the size:


Actually, something a bit smaller. . . . numerals about 1" to 1.5" high

Velleman kits?

The price might be more than you would like but some of these kits might work

Velleman's kit looks the best bet so far, albeit it a big big. Qkits doesn't give the sizes, but they could also be good. Thanks so far.

Yikes! I can't believe the prices on those clock kits...

What about stealing the guts out of an off-the-shelf clock like this?:

I have a clock at my bedtable that is not radio, just clock and beep alarm, should fit pretty well in a wooden shell like that one. Brand westclox, similar to this one: http://ep.yimg.com/ip/I/gadgetbargains_2056_31546247

BTW, Im kinda addicted to DX, bought a fair share of stuff there, mostly flashlight & flashlight DIY related (I build flashlights as a hobby)

Yes DX is a really neat company. Have purchased from them in the past and always was satisfied for what I paid.
