Thanks NIck. No, that's just the way that digit's formed on that tube. Not 
one of the best in my stock of these.

Lovely lovely clock - I like that.

Has the hours/units digit 2 gone a bit wonky or is that an artefact of the 
filming?

Tragic news. I worked on a couple of things for Jeff and knew him as great 
guy, very helpful and willing to give his time freely.

Bye Jeff

A very sad day. He was one of the old guard that brought life back into the 
nixie tube, and created this hobby.

It was an honor to have known him.

Really, really, sad to hear this news - our thoughts are with his family 
and friends...

I had a fair amount of communication with Jeff over the years, most 
recently in the last few months where he helped me update & rebuild my 
all-original NixiSat - one of his many beautiful designs.

He was one of the original members of the original Yahoo! neonixie-l group 
back in 2002 and was always helpful, willing & constructive in giving 
advice.

He'll be missed by many.

Nick
