Added a reset circuit, so it will count from 0 to 5, then reset to 0:

Well, actually it transiently hit 6, but then quickly resets to 0, so you
never see the 6
Dalibor I posted a copy of this at the Tube Collectors Association group -
hope you are OK with that.
Congratulations on the work - I have followed your posts and said little. I am
very envious.

This was indeed a nice way of solving the reset/set circuit.
If I don't misunderstand how the circuit works you can add one transistor
between each pair of cathodes on both even and odd branches, and if you
also add the possibility to reset/set the flip/flop, it would be possible
to set the
Yes, though for the purpose I described, its working just as it should.
This is how the asynchronous reset works on most modern logic chips. If you
want a 4017 to count from 0 to 5 (Q0 to Q5), you connect the reset to
output Q6. But if you stick a small cap across that 10K resistor, that's
Yes indeed, a very nice job. I'm impressed

Wow, that is amazing! I actually like the envelope shape :-). Maybe it's a
bit too big for a 6 digit clock, but it would look brilliant for a single
tube nixie clock!
Well done!
