This is definitely the right place, as many people here design Nixie
clocks, either for themselves or as kits / assembled units for sale.
You can get quite a feeling of accomplishment by assembling a clock
from a good kit, and it will give you good practice and background if
you decide to design your own clock later on.

I've purchased kits from a number of people in this group (and also
pre-assembled clocks). Some of the ones I've assembled are:

TubeHobby - Several kits using either IN-14 or IN-18 tubes -
http://tubehobby.com/store.php?cat=1
Nixiekits - Various kits with different VFD and Nixie tubes -
http://nixiekits.eu/
MOD-SIX - Amazing clock using giant B-7971 Nixies -
http://badnixie.com/BadNixie.com_Welcome.html

The MOD-SIX is absolutely amazing (and even more goodies in the next
version), but uses the 6 of the incredibly expensive B-7971 tube (over
$100 each) and mostly surface-mount components, so definitely not a
kit for beginners.

That is just a sampling of the kits available, based on ones I have
direct experience with. Other members will surely recommend some
additional kits.

You might want to take a look at http://www.tubeclockdb.com/ as it has
reviews (often with video included) of many present and past clock
designs, both fully-assembled and from kits.

Also look at

- a huge list of many Nixie tube-related sites.
