Nixie Tube Clock IN-1

thingiverse

Designed for IN-1 nixie tubes this clock case has room for 6 nixie tubes showing from top to bottom Hours - Minutes and Seconds. The PCB (kit) used in this build can be found in a link below. Behind the nixie clock 'tower' there is a box storing the pcb and giving the tall nixie case a sturdy base. I use a small 2 way toggle switch for the power on-off and a metal socket for the PSU in (Power supply Unit) i will also place these links to Ebay below. The nice thing about in-1 tubes is that the base is made from 'Bakelite' a really nice and old material giving it a 'heavy duty' feel and they are dirt cheap! 6pcs in-1 tubes sell for €12/14$ including shipping to Europe. (the clock next to it are in-14 tubes) I did solder the wires directly onto the back pins of the tubes but you can also use 4mm female PSU Molex pins found in PC hardware. Some small parts and hardware you also need are 8 3x15 screws and a 9v 500mah PSU.
