Someday I may have enough for a clock like Michael B. built ported and polished rack mount style...

I scored two more B-8091 and had one so far so that makes 3... three more to go!  Collecting these larger tubes is no small feat these days!  I wish I had started this at least a few years earlier.

That's two more than me ;-). These are very nice tubes though.

When you're low on tubes, just do what I do..
Use smaller Nix's for the seconds.  Gives it a nice look too

It's hard not to think bigger might be better with these tubes... It one of the reasons I want Dalibor to make an even bigger tube. When I saw that huge tube on his blog it can't not make you excited!

Seeing him working on his tubes is the greatest mad scientist lab experience. I hope he will do a similar video for the large tube once the process is perfected.

those tubes are fine looking!
if you post a vid, I'll have to build another clock.  Just finished 2 of 3!

His video production isn't half bad either!  It's hard not to appreciate what he's doing after watching that video!  The whole history of what he went through through to get to where he's at now... He's inspired others to do the same and he's decided it's not some secret what he's doing and how he does it.

That's legit.

Really nice collection there!  I can relate to the time it takes to get some of the tubes.  The B-7094 are awesome!
