UHuuuuUH! @05:18

Please make the F tube pin compatible with both the Z566M and IN-18. I would like to use them in some of my existing clocks when they’re available.

Will you sell bases that support four tubes (+colon) for a clock?

Sucks you had to give up some space! but hey if it makes money sense I guess..

You have nothing but my highest respect and appreciation for dedicating so much time and effort in the matter of keeping Nixies alive, I am sure you these set backs will look nothing but a scratch in the retrospective in a few years. You came so far, those hickups won't get you down

Thanks for your honesty and openness - not beating around the bush! Watching your videos and seeing your fabrication makes me wanna pack up my lab here, move down to Czech Republic and work for you.

Rád sleduji vaši cestu. Přeji ať se nadále daří 🙂

I wish you greatest success with this. I love NIXIES <3

I'm glad to hear that the "R" tube will be available again and that the company is focusing on building nixie tubes. Thanks for not letting the nixies die, I really appreciate your work.

hey dalibor, thank you so much for the openness with which you give insight into your business. the passion you show is truly astonishing. i love following your journey since a long while, and now, as i am thinking of turning a hobby into a business myself, it is just inspiring to see your dedication, as well as a great resource to learn. so from the bottom of my heart: thank you!

Dalibor, can you make the RCA paper available, perhaps in PDF format? Maybe it will revive some "old" memories and those people might contact you to share their "old" information with you?

Thank you for the news ! Last month we bought a Bulb clock as retirement gift for a electronician colleague. My, he was stunned and grateful ! I whish you all the best, and I'm confident F tube will be awesome !

Once the puri clocks are sold out. I'd love if the circuit schematics or even the PCB design was made public with open-source code. Then we can make the clocks ourselves and buy the tubes for it. I think that would be a great electronics project for a lot of people.

Good Luck Dalibor! I hope you manage to grow your business's and post more interesting videos about your Tube project.

9:50 Interesting. Almost all old lamps (including diods, triods etc), which I saw, had this greyish metal inside. So, probably, it has more advantages except "good looking".

i hope to one day see you expand past nixies and into cathode ray, magic eye, and other specialist tubes like the rare 12fq8's and such.

I feel your pain in my bones when you said "...a couple of...fuckups" It's never a good feeling to admit defeat and cancel a project

@daliborfarny I truly appreciate you sharing this journey with all that are interested. Startups are not easy under ideal conditions. Being an engineer myself I tended to have negative perceptions of marketing and sales. Until I became the communication bridge between sales and engineering. I think you need to reconsider your marketing position. Severing custom projects was a wise move. In my opinion you need to capture customers for current products. Get that revenue machine working. That will enable quality, and all the associated economies of scale.

While ready automation may mean scrapping some interesting experiments, I just wish you to proceed and evolve into a self sustainable organism (it is already, yet I wish you rock solid stability).

Cool

Wild to see my home state of New Jersey actually mentioned positively for a change!

Amazing work, enjoying your progress! much love

Beautiful machine, excited to see it up and running again in the future!

I'm sure I can't afford one of those upright displays, but I want one. 😮

Zdravím Dalibore, ta odmlka byla dlouhá ale nedivím se. Máte toho "naloženo" opravdu dost a zvládnout to v této hodně pitomé době není lehké. Sleduji Vás dost dlouho a stále se nestačím divit co jste dokázal a doufám že ještě dokážete. Moc Vám přeji abyste toto období překonal a dál, nejen mě ale i ostatní, překvapoval Vaší genialitou. P.S. teda ten TOP SECRET projekt v čase 1:15 - 1:40 tak na to video se moc těším, nádherný digitron.

There is an americal company called "Indium corp" that does fancy metallic-layer sheets. Their "go-to" product is with Al/Ni nanolayers. They have a YT-channel. The YT channel "Applied Science" also has an episode about this metamaterial.

It’s not “way how to.” It’s just “way to.”

Thank you for honest analytics about your company!

díky za tohle video, mnoho lidí se o tyto problémy veřejně nedělí, Velice zajmavý

There's a few hot pockets you could tap into. Old bulbs (LEDs try, but they don't match - i've yet to find LED look alikes that fit the right theme), tubes for radios, tubes for (other) old electronics. I cannot state how much (within my own sphere) i stumble upon people who either buy or hoard these old glass based elements. You're already 50% there, you have mastery of glass, you have the equipment. Soon (fingers crossed) you'll have the machine to make these on the cheap(er)... might be worth looking into it. Just a thought.

With the steel how about contacting customers of it, and seeing if they have any part rolls or excess in the thickness you need that they are willing to sell to you.

i love what your doing great work

Hello Dalibor, I am following your activities since the times when you worked in a small shed. You have done a fantastic job transforming your passion in tangible, great tube artwork. I keep my fingers crossed that you find the right path for your business! Greetings from Germany.

i hope it will get sold for a affordable price really want a nixe tube clock. and i really like your videos have been a subscriber for 5 years now i think so keep the good work up 👍

You're not alone my friend, pretty much every industry in every country is having the same issues with slow sales and inflation sadly I don't see that changing in the next 18 months. All we can do as business owners is continue to find sales where and when we can. I wish you luck as I love seeing what you are doing in your video updates.

Sounds like you could use some automation. Because you need tubes on mass.

I live near geneva, anyway i could get to see it ? will there be an exhibition ? or at a store ? Nice project, sad they were so secretive, the H tube project was great because of the openness!

1:33 Awesome! I love you're also doing things different from the regular Nixie tubes.

I come back to watch this every now and then

Maybe some ideas here - Mullard Labs tour (1950s-60s) - ruclips.net/video/GDvF89Bh27Y/видео.html

Как жаль что в сша теперь нечем больше заняться кроме этого

Ce puritete iese

Show us that nixi at work

For better working of your after cooler stage, you can try to make an envelope so the air is forced through all area of the cooling coil

hey ik this is 7 years ago but i was wondering if yall sold the tubes themselves because id love to make a watch with them, imo a watch with nixi tubes would look sick

To avoid burning the pins - did you think about using a CO2 Laser for heating the glass? Normal glass ist rather opaque at 10,6 µm. You can melt the glass without hitting the pins. Also this type of laser has become rather cheap.

Hello I am watching this in 2024 so I hope you are still reading your comments as I would like to say that the skill, precision and knowledge you demonstrate is to be applauded. You have achieved a wonderful blend of art and engineering kind Regards Clare

What a pain in the arse.

Tables are too low. You should raise them higher so that people don't hunch over while working.

A nemohli by tie piny byt osadene v tej vrchnej forme a az pri zlisovani by sa zastrcili do roztaveneho skla?
