Thank you Peter.
I tried to add the digital meters but I was not satisfied with the result.
Now I'm thinking about analog voltmeter and ammeter. These meters better
fit with the retro casing.

For current, there aren't any 20mA meters that I could find, but there are
plenty of 0-20V meters, so just measure the voltage-drop across a 1K / 1%
(or better) resistor.
Just be careful to use at least a 1/2W resistor; recommend 1W to reduce
self-heating, which affects the accuracy.
I went
Agree that meters are a nice add to some of the Nixie Testers. Here’s an
example of what can be done:
Meters added to existing “Retro” tester. A dremel tool and file produced the
openings. Those with lasers can do an even nicer job.
IN-12 running at 3.5mA, 170 volts.

I've done some hot plate reflow. Discrete components down to 0603 are
straightfoward and easy to touch up with a soldering iron. Chips, on the
other hand... I recently burned through three boards with a ESP8285 and a
CP2102N on it. Never did get them to work.The main problem is not being

Just an update where I am at.
My kit arrived safe and sound from Pete today.
I have the design pretty well finished up. I did not need a CAD program as
outlined below.
A shop with a CNC mill just wanted the X and Y coordinates for each hole,
what size were the plates and where was "0"
I appreciate your products very much.I have the old device and added an
external socket for IN-18 together with small amper- and voltmeter. Because
I'm not so good in mechanics it doesen't look so nice but it works.
A device with internal mA and V display made by you would be the non plus
I bought a book on Eagle to learn, but I switched to DipTrace when I
realized how much Eagle would cost to make boards that would hold 8, Z568
tubes. Initial cost and upgrades are very reasonable.

I bought an Eagle book too, but didn't find it very helpful and ended up
learning more from online tutorials.

That's another one I plan to investigate.

I'm seriously considering it. More and more parts are only available in SMT,
and it would be nice to do quick turn PCB assembly by milling a PCB then
assembling it. Some parts are impractical to solder, while I haven't run into
