New member. Old clock. Built a Claus Urbach In-18 Nixie tube clock 13 years
ago, ran until Nov 22 when tubes looked wonky. Bought new tubes ($$$ to
Ukraine support) and bought new clock driver PCB from Claus, as well as
GPS-DCF77 converter from Guenter at gr-projects. All worked fine in USA
G"day From Perth-Western Australia..My name is Peter(60) and after trieing

Electronics.lol...Love nixie clocks and wanted too learn about them and the
Basic ways they operate.Have met-many great people and have ,enjoyed
helping
Thank you very much for the link.
I came across the giant nixie project of his, didn't realize this was the
same channel you were referring to. Very informative.

Good day, everyone.
I'm just getting into the subject of Nixie tube making. I have gotten to
work with some new old stock nixies and some de-soldered miniature digit
tubes and now I'm curious about the process of manufacturing my own. I
found the Dalibor Farni channel
Hi Richard,
thank you ! I am currently based in Singapore.
I am still waiting for some components from Element14 and I will be able to
start building.
Cheers,

For those putting the trigger tube clock together, I'm in the process of building one board set up and writing the construction manual. It's not really necessary, as you can just follow the eagle files etc on the Dropbox from Grahame, but it may be useful for some. If any builders have comments or
Welcome to the group.
I am particularly interested to hear that you are building the Trigger
clock as I am embarking on that same project. I have the boards and am
securing the tubes as we speak.
It would be good to keep in touch regarding progress and anything that
I/You/We find out along
Hi there,
I joined recently the group and read with interest the conversations.
I came accros the Web page of Grahame and his various clocks and got
interested in the cold cathode trigger clock project which I am going to
build.

You will need 200 volts or more from a switching power supply. Do not use a
transformer or line voltages.
It would be safer to let them try 7 segment LED
Hi,
I'm a kind of geek dad of geek kids (Legos, Minecraft, Scratch, Arduino,
you know it). One of my sons bought nixie months ago but wasn't able to
make them work. So I'm basically here to learn what's going on. I don't
have lot of skills in electronic, but will try to help if I can.

Hello everyone! Managed to get approved by a moderator to join this lovely

Hopefully I am using this platform correctly; I've actually never used
Google groups as a platform for communication, so forgive me if something
goes awry.

You may need to use a different SPI mode. There are four possibilities
You will also need to figure out which pins the SPI library uses.

I’d certainly be interested in a couple of B7971 FLW boards/kits if you decide
to do another run. Also the ZM1350 would make an interesting project.
