Thanks NIck. No, that's just the way that digit's formed on that tube. Not

Seems silly to me to save a few dollars by multiplexing when the tubes are
so costly. My thoughts exactly!

Now that it's sold..anybody notice the rip saw marks on the edge of that

maker did not pay a whole lot of attention to detail and did not bother to
sand the saw marks out of his edges. Sorry, I am a bit of a stickler for

I concur. It is a thing of beauty. I purchased one of his Solitube clocks.
Quite an accomplishment!

Hello guys,
I remember I read a post in the forum where someone showed a DIY red
filter on a nixie tube. I was searching hard,
I would try replacing C6 again with a known good part and leave the clock
out of it's case without the heat sink and see how it does. This is the
exact syndrome that mine exhibited twice on the one clock until I opened up
the case and dropped the voltage and replaced C6. Then add a heat sink
Is it still exhibiting the same symptoms as in your video without the
heatsink?

I have had this same issue with 3 of Jonas' clocks and each time the fix
has been a combination of replacing C6 and a dropping the voltage a bit to
keep the temperature down on that VREG. I also ended up changing the design
of my enclosed cases to allow better cooling internally and this seemed
