Nixie Clock!
I've wanted a nixie clock for a long time. A good mate and I talked about doing it over 10 years ago now - and he ordered some IN14 nixies that arrived and sat on a shelf until a couple of weeks ago when he mentioned he'd come accross them. This was all either of us needed to finally order some clock kits and get going. So I ordered two of the IN14 kits from nixie diy . They took a couple of weeks to arrive. We met up this week to swap some nixies for a kit - and I got a couple hours to sit down this morning and built the clock - and it is fricken awesome. All through hole work with the only surface mount part pre-soldered on the kit when it arrived. The manual for the kit is well laid out with some keey points to stop and test the build as you go. So there was nothing to it but to dust off the soldering iron and get going! From left to right: Kit, acrylic case, 6 nixie tubes in bubble wrap. Shot of the bare PCB before I start...
