Fred Niell's Nixie Tube Clock

Fred Niell has made a functional nixie clock using a PIC microcontroller. Fred provides schematics and code so that you can build your own. But be careful since this clock operates at 175 Volts! “I decided to use point-to-point wiring for this prototype. That was difficult. I wouldn’t suggest it for a relatively complex digital design, such as this. I also fit the clock into a wooden shadow-box. I think
