I was stood next to that last Sunday - we actually got right in to the
coding and how all the instructions worked as we single stepped through the
code. Our guide said that some people use Dekatrons to garnish their clocks
so I showed him a picture of my 'Harwell' from Sgitheach - which he fou

The late John Smout produce several unique single tube clocks:

And Mike's Electric stuff has several designs:

Dekatrons both "compute" and "display" making them very versatile. Read
the chapter in the book by JB Dance that Jon referenced and you'll see
how they work.

I remember a "funny" display on a CDC 160A, there were 8 lamps illuminating
a frosted glass, each lamp had a cover where a number was cut out. This
made it possible to display an octal digit easily. But it didn't have the
charm of a Nixie.
for the 360, I think it was something like a midget flan
Welcome Ben, good to have you here. It's a bit difficult to know where to

might not be on point. A good start might be to get hold of a copy of

I think Laurence Wilkins' Cyclox design takes a lot of beating for a
classic one tube clock.

Hello Zachary.
I am more confident with electronics rather than case design. But once you
master the electronics side of Nixie circuits you get more time to think of
the exterior.
In November 2022 I came up with the single-digit clock in the attached
picture. From zero to delivery to a teen impres
