Japanese homemade Nixie tubes

[jb-electronics]

Hey friends,

I cannot believe I have missed out for so long, but check out this
fellow here: https://twitter.com/yuna_digick

A lot of seemingly very high quality "homemade" Nixie tubes! Quite amazing!

Best wishes
Jens

I would love to buy some of his tubes!

Interesting video I found while digging around Japanese twitter on nixie tube related posts: CD27's (BIG tubes) used in some sort of sign.

And another japanese guy's google album where he makes a mini version of the same sign! https://get.google.com/albumarchive/107684854407435333810/album/AF1QipPlg_drxDBLgDzbeg8OvQsGJJxrqvkcpBRZ0e77?feat=directlink

It is the countdown clock in the JAXA press room. It was still in use in 2012. http://ima.hatenablog.jp/entries/2012/07/21

Looks like theres been quite a bit of activity on his twitter.

I think he's making a new tube which is usb powered and has an integrated boost converter for generating high voltage in the base of the tube. Really neat stuff; hope he releases it as a finished product in the foreseeable future!

I sent him a message on Twitter, and they said that mass production will start soon :)

Hello.

I'm reviving this thread since "yuna" (Yuna Digick) was at Tokyo Maker Faire last weekend (September 2022, https://makezine.jp/event/makers-mft2022/m0088/) showing her/his/their tubes. There is also an extensive photo collection of yuna work: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOLmA7GLNbKZlk8lZF8HnLJIP8VZPCEYdJzQkDdVyh54iPUZzG_vjyeV9Ap8Bxz4w?key=VFVmSUN4eTA4MkZlS1VmRHk3dlBMdHZXb09HYVp3 .

I got it over my twitter feed and cross-checked with neonixie archives.

The text can be translated with online tools, even thought there isn't much documentation.
