Computer controlled rapid manufacturing meets Nixie, Big Blue Saw writes –

“This gorgeous image was sent in by one of our customers, who used parts from Big Blue Saw to make a Nixie clock. This digital clock uses Nixie tubes, neon tubes which display the time. The creator, Joe Hoffman, tells us that the Nixie tubes are of Soviet manufacture from around the 1960’s. The center piece is acrylic.

Here are the original parts which Big Blue Saw made for Joe, laid out for incorporation into the clock. “Link.
