This is version my of a vertical clock.  Using the board from our friend Ian at nixieclock.biz   Also want to thank David P from our group for helping with the PCBs!
I chose to hand wire the rest.  Soon will be nicely enclosed in an acrylic tube!  Runs on WiFi so easy to setup.
I chose ZM1000s since I had a box of NOS.

I also like your LCR meter... I just made extended Kelvin clip leads for mine.

Nice! That’s a neat idea - I don’t think I’ve come across the vertically designed clocks before

I like it.

 

First thought it was IN-8 with Fine Mesh.

 

I just ran into 11x IN-8-2 fine mesh.

 

I wanna see the end product.  J

 

Bill – What new Numi clocks?

Ian has new design DA/DR20x0 clock and also a second similar driven new smaller numitron IV-9 clock kit.  Originally I wanted to use the TLC5940 with PWM on each segment... I made a video testing it:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbwpUXnU_Eg

Ian decided to go with something he knew which was easier and I'm building two big and two small ones as soon as the new kits get here.

Here are the new numitron clocks from Ian:



I was hoping to work more on it with him but he totally ran with it.  I just got my first two kits today for the bigger tubes.  I'll take some pictures and post them shortly.

By the way everyone... His price including tubes is amazing! I already had a bunch of these numitrons but that's a legit price! Some people try and get 50$ for one dang tube on the bay!!!

Ian is legit a heck people!

Wow.   Great price too.

 

Only $80 additional for the 6x DA2000.    I barely get that price by buying 100 at a time.

 

Just wish I could get the WeMos source code.   :P

Plus shipping which is $18. If for the tubes alone it's $12 that's still only $16 apiece. Matched and well-packed.
