I paid up a little for this and...

I suspect a slight bit of insider trading... I don't get these anonymous bidders (how do you get that status with no name at all even made up random one?)

Not having this in front of me it looks familiar to me... maybe a certain awesome builder here used something like this before...

My guess is these are SK-137's but it's a guess up till I have in my hands.

Not many parts of interest in those parts.

No tubes, just the empty panel.

Wow, that looks pretty awesome.  I would buy that.

You can read about the unit it came from here: https://www.tubeclockdb.com/forum/11-ebay-finds/2922-rack-mount-6-digit-large-burroughs-b-8091

Check the video too!

Thanks Martin... I've got some B-8091's and some NL-8091's and was hoping this was what this is. Now the question is which electronics to put in a clock like this that's worthy of this investment in time and money to get these pieces together once again? I definitely think a modern kit with WiFi and ntp is in order as well as adding the wiring for all six digits. I'd really prefer code I can edit as well so either open source or someone that's ok with it. It needs some juice too and I've got some Taylor supplies. It's been a quest of mine. I think this was a Navy time keeper originally.

Best off the shelf kit I can think of is PV electronics. I know Mike B. from badnixie.com has built a few enclosures with big tubes running PV guts.

I used Thomas NixiChron guts on the ones I built. If I were to do another one, I'd use the PV electronics. Plenty of horsepower there and it has all the features you mention. I used his guts to drive my F9020AA clock and they drive those bad boys with ease! Not sure Pete V. would allow you to mess with the code tho. And yes, it was a USN display device. See attached

Awesome Michael I knew you had some experience with this for sure! I've closely studied your website and I love the diagrams you published that give me some dimensions to think about. Really neat stuff!

Thanks again,

Bill
