If anyone has broken B7971 tubes for sale, I am interested in the bases.
They might be useful for my homemade Nixie tubes project.
Best regards,
Jens

A couple of things. I can sympathise:

Firstly, these things contained a small amount of mercury - just be
careful what you do with it.
The 7971 is one of the longest-lasting tubes (if you don't have a cat,
that is...) so it'd be really good to have one of the cathodes (and
possibly the anode) analysed to get its alloy mix.
As Jens Boos and others are interested in making their own nixies, if
you have access to any of that analytical stuff still, (or if anyone
else has), lets see what this tube was actually made of...
