Built something a little different today...

Nixies are awesome.  Many years ago I saw someone make a wrist watch with 4 tiny nixies.  Totally impractical since the power needed was so much but he made it work by having it normally off, push a button to light em up. 

I also made my kid a clock with a nixie like vacuum tube from Adafruit.  Yours looks really nice, I really like the base.
