Re: [neonixie-l] NOT another nixie clock!

Laurence, I like the way you think! I might go for a new Nixie bench meter of that caliber. The Fluke 8200A, with autoranging added, would be an excellent starting point for aesthetics. It would want to be 4 inches deep instead of 14, of course. But you defintely would have my interest if

Re: [neonixie-l] NOT another nixie clock!

Yeah, that's a project I've thought about, but my conclusion was that the DMM chips were all intended for direct-drive LCD, or perhaps LED. I get stuck in an endless loop of trying to justify building something really interesting that wont get used very much vs adding features that would be

Re: [neonixie-l] NOT another nixie clock!

Greetings Nixiers, Laurence, i think it's a fabulous idea. I, too, have been thinking about non-clock nixie projects, but hadn't thought of a modern bench meter. Great idea! To those like Dylan (and me) who are a little nervous about the pricing, i suggest starting a NMM fund *now*. Less than

I would love one, and applaud the idea, but that price point will put it out of range for me. On Oct 7, 2016 3:02 PM, "Laurence Wilkins" wrote: > Over almost the last ten years, I have been designing, producing and > selling a variety of logic and PIC Micro-controlled nixie

Over almost the last ten years, I have been designing, producing and selling a variety of logic and PIC Micro-controlled nixie clocks, from classic 2x3 mux 74141-based designs to multiplexed and direct drive IN18 monsters, to miniature desk clocks and single digit weirdness. I feel I've

Re: [neonixie-l] Where do I find companies that can laser cut perspex/wood and which software should I use?

Martin, I do all my laser cutting at the local hackerspace, Xerocraft in Tucson. Look for one near you, if you're in a city. They have many other useful tools as well, such as a metalworking machine shop. On 10/7/2016 2:06 AM, Dekatron42 wrote: Hi all, I need help in finding companies

Hi Martin The company I use for acrylic cutting in the UK is (no affiliation, just a customer) http://www.zapcreatives.co.uk/ I draw my objects in QCAD and save the working files as DXF. I export the files as SVG and import the SVG into InkScape along with a Zap Creatives template. Their

Hi all, I need help in finding companies that can laser cut perspex and wood and also help with what software I should use to make the drawings that these companies can use. To begin with I will make simple pieces that fit together like jigsaw pieces or like dovetail fitting. I've used
