The Nixie Clock

I've been wanting to build one of these for years. I finally was able to make a high voltage DC power supply to power the tubes and this first set of photos shows this process. Once the clock is done, I'll divide this gallery into the different steps of completion. The clock has yet to be completed but the hardest part has been finished. Stay tuned.

There used to be kits available in the 70s for these. Very cool to take this on. One was featured in a close-up in the old thriller Dressed to Kill, w/Angie Dickenson
