    Must build one of those! Looks really nice. Have always been a fan of those neons after seeing them on some old equipment at work.

    Nice photos also as usual!

    Got mine in the post today, going to try and build it tonight at work!

    Racking my brains on how to mount it at the moment...got a real thing for copper at the moment!

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Nice kit. I've always liked Nixie tubes.

    It's a shame that the PCB layout doesn't make use of proper valve sockets for the tubes, but I guess the way they've done it keeps the kit cost down.

    I still keep meaning to design my own copy of the Qlocktwo. I even started a thread about it ages back. One of those projects that's on the 'to do' list...

    Thanks... it seems that various tubes use different mounting components.
