Tubes, sockets and transformers

A project log for No-Silicon digital clock

No-Si clock, with digital readout 0:00-11:59 TOTALLY WITHOUT SILICON. No microcontrollers, no chips, no transistors. Valves/tubes!

Yesterday I finished putting all the tube sockets and I placed some of the tubes, just to see if everything fits nicely. Sure it does!

I have also a beefy transformer for the filaments of the double triodes and rectifier tubes for the power supply. The dekatrons and nixie tubes don't have a filament but the double triodes do!

I also have selected a transformer for the HV.
