I should put copperwire in the kit, so the bulders can wind their coils
themselves. It's a part of the fun and doesn't degrade the kit not to an
IKEA item (including Allen-wrench ;-) ).
An other possibility is to develop an simle winding machine

It sometimes pays off to check easy to get parts for something that may
just do the job for you rather than winding all the coils yourself. You
could check miniature solenoids or things like that, take them apart and
see if you can get it working with the coils from the solenoids.
Yeah, if
Tony's methode is most efficient: The tubes shut off, as soon as jou lift
them from the board, like a pen from a WACOM® tablet (also an indication
someone lift a piece from the board and he MUST move that piece).
How would you switch off the tubes in case of battery supply? (Don't say
they shut
Yes I know, I was just thinking of a way to make it portable without
carrying a big battery. You could put reed switches inside the chess pieces
and mount small magnets underneath each square of the chess board. That way
they will also turn off when you lift them or put them aside.
But however
Top project - very nice - very cute - we like this!
I realise you have 8x8 + 2x16 sets of coils - couldn't you use a single
coil for the board - some sort of convolution to get a more even field
maybe? There are a lot of wireless power notes and practical projects

I'll try to reply to most of the pints in one post to prevent
cluttering the thread up, but first of all - you are all a bunch of
feature creeps! ;)
I did consider one large coil but couldn't see it being possible to
provide even coverage and avoid hotspots or overdriving the displays

I bought one of Threeneurons (mike?) dekatron spinner kits to play with
some ideas. I'm new tubes in general. Anyway, the dekatron puts out about a
50-60 volt pulse at NDX. I am trying to drop that closer to 5v but at
least less than 10v. I tried using a voltage divider made of 2 resistor
If you can supply this with custom made chess nixies, and a nixie chess
timer I'd be very tempted to buy a set! Not sure about a kit though, it
looks like a lot of work to assemble and I already have so much spare time
left. For myself it's not really important if it can or cannot be
