That's exactly what I have done for a lot of clocks. Unfortunately, I have a couple of broken B7971 tubes. Thanks to my wife.....Errrr Michail In a message dated 5/23/2011 5:05:38 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Yep, exactly Nick. I used the library as a starting point, decreased the size of the holes to match the pin sockets that I was using and then repeatedly checked and double checked the layout. One good tip is to make the pcb holes a little bigger than they would need to be for the mounting pin so that you can be off a bit and still get the tubes to fit into place. I placed the socket pins onto the Nixie tube pins and used that to align and hold the socket pins in place when I soldered them to the board. It seemed to work out well. -Scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group. To post to this group, send an email to [email protected].
