this first picture is the correct color, in my other pictures tubes look a little more violet, this is due to the lit digits of the nixie and their  contrasting orange color.
Pete has included about 28 user settings, you can cycle through them using the adjust buttons, my favorites are the fading digits setting where all digits fade to the next instead of switching, the other is the slot machine function where user can set all digits to cycle every minute, hour or 12 hours..
If you have gotten this far I thank you very much.
and appreciate all your input.

Awesome project, incredible work. Would love to try making similar. Although, Yoda tells me to do, or do not, no try.

This is a gorgeous project, a work of art. My only question is why aren't the wood pieces flush with each other along the back?
