There is a seller on ebay who has changed his selling name/account a few times, but sells a very good clock, and he basically does the same thing. I have several of his clocks. He uses pin headers to a small PCB. The tubes soldered to it. This makes them modular and easy to rotate/replace. Pixel Design not LF Design Just look on ebay and search for "nixie clock design" He has done that modular design with QS30, IN14, and IN8 (at least those are the 3 versions I have). I can take pics if ya like. Michail Wilson

I soldered those on to a 14-pin DIP header plug to test a few of those tubes, and I really like the way they turned out. Before soldering each lead, I insulated each one and then carefully bent the ends to fit into the little forks on the DIP header pins. With care, each tube ends up the same height above it's header. Then, it easily plugs in to a 14 pin DIP socket. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
