Repurposing this to a desktop clock would make a nice project...

That thing just oozes the cool factor ;-)    I love the 60's/70's terminal look aesthetic with all the curvy lines.  And FOURTEEN tubes!  Clock, calendar and more!

Did you grab it?

It does have that era's aesthetic to it doesn't it? I'm not grabbing it, far too many projects on the go...someone here should snag it though and make a cool desk clock out of it...

That case is insanely beyond cool. It pains me to think that the buyer may simply pull the tubes out of it and throw the rest away.

Paying that amount to simply take the tubes? Seriously doubt it

There's always a chance that some jackass/noob will do it and that's what sickens me.  8/
