David, don't living hinges turn white in clear material as soon as you 
stress them? Even in most opaque materials.
Not sure it will be the effect you want.

Nice piece of design!

Roddy, this looks beautiful! Only one question: what's with the LEDs? 
Don't they interfere with the beautiful antique vibe? :p

[neonixie-l] Re: Dolam LC-7

[SWISSNIXIE - Jonathan F.]

Taking photos of nixies is not very easy, and can be challenging. I use a 
box of styropor  and place the nixie inside. I have a flash directed to the 
roof of the box, so the light will hit the withe roof and reflect back 
inside the case, this gives a filling light and does not create any flares 
of so. I also use a rather long exposure (1/50 to 1/25 second) so the glow 
has enough time to fill the picture. The only thing i do in post-processing 
is slightly adjusting the exposure for different digits - and 
cutting/rotating of course. 



The absolute master of nixie photography is the guy in this topic:
