Hi Nick,

the base was made from a piece of Teak that had been a floating shelf at 
some point, I picked it up for next to nothing at a timber merchants where 
I get the hardwoods for my clocks, they sell bundles of mixed offcuts which 
are a lot less expensive..
You can see it before it was modified H 
<https://www.instructables.com/id/The-Tesla-Meets-Edison-Nixie-Clock/>ERE as 
an Instructable. It turned out a lot better than I thought it would as Teak 
is quite plainly grained compared to other hardwoods
