Some years ago, I made some ornaments using transparent plastic balls with an IN-18 inside. I did not use any underlight. I made the connections with ugly gray 12-conductor cables. Somebody in the group gave me the idea to hide the cables inside colored (green, brown, gold, …) cable sleeves. That was the solution to the main aesthetic problem. Hiding the controller was very easy :-) Anyway, it would be nice to see some numitron decorations…
