I got the components on the board and then placed one tube so I Could test it in conjunction with the main board and make sure I Was able to actually make it display OK.

This was the moment I had the necessary components on the tube board and a single tube placed and sorted out sending data to the HV5530 chips to make a digit display properly!  It took quite some time :)

And then after all tubes placed and tested.  This was a good day!


Bottom of board after assembly was finished and everything attached.

And then a couple pics of the top of board after assembly.
