Wow, it's beautiful! And massive--the can for perspective really drove the
size home for me. Great work on both your parts.

Hello blkadder,

Thank you for your message and your interest!

I have designed the housing of the above mentioned nixie clock. The 
complete housing including aluminum parts, polycarbonate cover and a set of 
screws costs 1970 USD (1600€) plus shipping. Richard Scales did a great job 
at developing the electronics. They consists of a main board, sockets and 
ribbon cables and the approximate price is 290 USD (200£) plus shipping. 
The nixie tubes RZ568M must be purchased from Dalibor separately.

This is an attempt to offer a unique looking clock design with a similar or 
better quality as the nixie clocks found in galleries or auctions but for a 
much friendlier budget. The assembly is quite simple and straight forward. 
All the electronic parts have connectors to plug them together. 

In case of any further questions please do not hesitate in letting me know.

That is one amazing looking clock.  I would be interested to know what the 
case would go for.  Hell, I am interested in what a clock like this might 
cost.  Great work all around, for sure.
