USER SUBMITTED CLOCKS

I have seen many Nixie clocks, and taken inspiration from other people's ideas and designs. It is interesting and also useful to see what other people come up with, to help you make your own clocks, and see how others use Nixie tubes and other display devices - Panaplex - Crt - VFD, it doesn't just have to be Neon. It is very much within the hobbyist realm and this page is for sharing and swapping notes! There are some exceptionally creative folks out there and should rightly have their creations on display!

This clock made in the box of an old insulation tester. The DC voltmeter is from some other. I found it to go good together. The crank is now used to switch on and off the tubes. The tubes are from an old radio location device.

This is a Philips low frequency generator from 1954. I added a 6-digit clock (Telefunken ZM1210), a dekatron in the central dial, and a 3-digit thermometer (GN4).
