[neonixie-l] Nixie clock design process

Hi guys, Decided to design a nixie clock, I'm industrial designer, so why not? I want to share the process with you For now I'm in very early stages. I plan to divide my work to 4 main stages. 1. Form ideas, proportions and details. 2. Form prototype and electronics fitting. 3. Improvements. 4

Really nice concepts! What tubes are you planing to use with it? I really like the blue part of dd5.jpg on right, too bad its cut off. I can see the curves of Atari and Commodore in there! On Monday, 1 July 2013 16:51:21 UTC+1, AndrakondrA (Daniil) wrote: > > Hi guys, > > Decided to design a nix

I like the "V" design, like the old Cadillac logo (2nd from right, about center vertically in dd4.jpg). I also like the "bridge" design (bottom row, 2nd from right in 3.jpg). The rocky faceted one is also appealing, giving the feel of the round finished tubes arising from rough-hewn rock (dd4.

Thanks for the feedback, for now bridge design is winning ... but only for now maybe better things will come. On Monday, July 1, 2013 8:13:35 PM UTC+2, jrehwin wrote: > > I like the "V" design, like the old Cadillac logo (2nd from right, about > center vertically in dd4.jpg). I also like the "b

> legs design process update. I had a thought on the evolving design. With the open legs illustrated, you could put the controls inside the opening of the legs, which would make them invisible from the front, which might be aesthetically appealing. - John -- You received this message because

Re: [neonixie-l] Another progress in making nixies

Hello Alek, I still dont know what form will have the stem, this could change price significantly. Materials are not much expensive, but it takes a lot of time to assemble the tube, pump it, fill it and so.. I am still in a phase of making prototypes, far from real production. But if everything wi

I am not that big fan of the bridge design, because most nixie clock i saw just seem to be too tall. Having the base taller than the tubes themselves just does not seem right to me. Thats why i also like your designs where the middle of the case is recessed down, like in the 2.jpg It would make
