Okay, NixieKits.eu has a cool new little nixie clock out based on IN-16 tubes. I've reviewed to of this other clocks (the IN-12 and VFD clock) and love them both. This guys looks like he surpasses the build quality of the other two. It uses a sandwiched Plexiglas enclosure like the VFD clock and manages to fit all of the components in an incredibly small space. Looking for the perfect Christmas gift? I am pretty sure that this is the one.
