Even the IN-14 has risen in price dramatically. When I built my wife's
clock 5 years ago, they were something like $1/each. Now they are
something like $6/each. She made me stockpile enough of the things to
give her confidence that there will be replacement tubes for her clock
for the rest of her life... and she's only 34, so that is a lot of
tubes! Luckily, it's made it 5 years without needing new tubes, so maybe
I don't need as many as I have.... But I'm still not allowed to get into
her "stash" for new clock designs. :)
I continue to recommend the IN-12 for new designs, it has the same digit
height as the IN-14 and is $1/tube. I wonder if the reason they are
still cheap is because they are end-view tubes?

But Shane is right: For a beginner a tube like the IN-14 ist very
nice. In fact, I still like it very much.
