Step 6: The final clock:

Here is than, my Lamina Nixie Clock. Shiny and beautiful. Everybody to who I have showed the clock were hypnotized, just sat and stared the running numbers for minutes :)
That is a good reward for me.

Is it possible to get the templates for the woodwork?

I cannot express how impressed I am. Good work, and one of the better of instructibles I've read. Incredible for the first tutorial in that you've made

Gotta say, this clock looks amazing! My grandpa and I are considering working on one in the near future, though considering how beautiful this one is, it'll be a hard act to follow.

You will have lot of fun and the end is going to be beautiful. Even a single Nixie tube is stunning!

If I were you I would change the blue LED to a white LED.It would look a lot better and classy.

stringstretcher in reply to carfurApr 16, 2012. 12:00 AM

Why not build one, so we can compare to see if you're right?

carfur in reply to stringstretcherApr 16, 2012. 3:18 AM

Nixie tubes are VERY expensive in my country.I live in Romania and i can't find a direct importer.As soon as I find a cheap way to get a hold on this sistem I will definitely begin working on one of my own.Of course it wont be as awesome as this one because I don't have a CNC to mill the pieces for it.

Sorry I disagree completely, the blue looks excellent and very classy. Great project, I think I shall give it a try.

I tried with white LED and actually it's a not a bad choice but indeed the blue has more radiation force field effect. The pictures are not really give back the glowing blue light.

I am sure it would worth of the time and effort to play around with different colors and type of LEDs and try different angles and quantities to have more cool effects.

I forgot to mention.AWESOME job !!!

carfur in reply to zorwickApr 15, 2012. 3:34 PM

You could also fit RGB leds 'cause it looks like you really know DIY electronics.That way you can select whatever color you like.It would also be cool to hook-up the backlight leds so that they change color when the alarm is ringing.

Beautiful design. Looks pretty complicated for me but I would certainly consider purchasing one as it looks like one of those things you can really pass down from generation to generation.
