[neonixie-l] Need HELP locating an ATMEGA16L chip from 2006 for a NIXIE Clock from MOSES that I built

[Ralph Krans]

In 2006 I bought an ATMEGA16L chip from a man on neonixie.com whose name is 
Moses from which I built a six digital Nixie tube clock using Burroughs 
7971 Nixie tubes.  That chip has finally failed and I desperately need to 
find another chip.
If you know Moses or where I can purchade one of the programmed chips I 
would greatly  appreciate it.  
The clock uses a 32 khz oscillator and a supercap for  backup power.

Thank You in advance,
Ralph

Try searching for a drawing cabinet, 2nd hand perhaps...
Those tend to be excellent quality.

[gregebert]

Metal ammo boxes. Very unlikely they will get crushed, and might even 
survive a fire.

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: Tube Storage

[Richard Scales]

I was fortunate to pick up an old plan chest which is basically lots of 
deep and wide draws but the draws are not that tall.
Each shelf is lined with polystyrene and tubes push in to the polystyrene - 
or lay flat - or in boxes. Lots of tubes in a single footprint.
