I have a 3D version made in Blender to help me vizualize the project (before jumping all in with the fabrication and spending money on materials and laser cutting)

Here's a quick selection of research sketches, ranging from 2017 to 2023. You can find the rest over on the github page !

The amp uses the SGVU151 kit and IN-13 tubes. The audio part uses the ELA21306 board, as its power matches the speakers I want to use. It's okay for the moment, but I might swap if for something better if I want to revisit this project one day.

The clock : it uses german Z5600M tubes and 4 small neon lamps, the brains are an Arduino UNO R4 Wifi with the Arduinix (arduinix.com/) shield. It connects to my Wifi Accesspoint on startup and every friday to (re)synchronize. If you power it up while pressing the button, it will create an access point and a webpage, from which you can set up your local wifi info.

My "Nixiez" : I am finally wrapping up a project I started in 2017 ! A DIY clock and audio amplifier duo.
Here's the github page with the code and more details than I have the patience to share here : github.com/dmeat-art/DMT-Nixie

A photograph of two square shaped appliances. The one on the left is an audio amplifier, featuring some control knobs and lever, and two vertical nixie tubes that are the VU meter. The one on the left is a clock that features 4 round nixie tubes, stacked in a square layout, reading the hours on top and the minutes at the bottom. Each machine has a wood-clad façade and framing, the amplifier having horizontal strips, and the clock having vertical strips.Same objects as the previous photo, but at an angle, focusing on the amplifier.Same objects as the previous photo, but at an angle, focusing on the clock.
