Who needs LCDs or LED fixtures when you have Nixie tubes?
The devices were originally created to display simple numbers and letters pre-LCD era. The fine glass, delicate wiring and snipped metal contribute to an elegant look.
In 2011, Dalibor Farny rediscovered the appeal of Nixie tubes. Since then, he's dedicated his time to crafting Nixie tubes. His process for recreating them is just as satisfying as watching them.
