This is an IN-12 Nixie Tube Clock that I designed. It uses a Parallax Propeller microcontroller as its primary CPU, and a GPS for time synchronization so the clock is always set to the correct time. There is much more information including a schematic and description on my blog at smbaker.com/propeller-powered-in-12-nixie-clock. I do not make or sell kits, so please do not ask me for a kit. I'll probably be putting up a link to where you can buy the PCB (at batchpcb) for those who wish to build their own, and perhaps the ponoko design files as well for the case. This video includes a demonstration of the clock as well as several stages of me building the prototype clock and assemblind the case.
