They were part of the test equipment that my dad used at work, occasionally we would visit his work. Didn't think much of it when I was young in the 1960s. although the stuff looked really neat. Some time in the 1980s, I got a used Bell & Howell (Heathkit) DVM with three Nixies, used it very seldom, but kept it around. Then around 2001 David got going with Cathode Corner, and all this stuff started to get interesting again. In 2002 I got one of his first three wristwatch boards, and also I made a TTL Nixie clock. I had also got a few old Beckman counters, so I made a vacuum tube digital clock with NE-2 display. I've been wearing the three versions of David's watch design since then, and looking unsuccessfully at yard sales and thrift stores for Nixie containing equipment.
