I had an old Nixie Tube project gathering dust, so I decided to revitalize it and repurpose it as a display for my Original Prusa I3 Mk3 printer. Nixie tubes are a vintage display technology, utilizing high voltages and a mixture of neon gas to illuminate digits. This project used a raspberry pi, seven IN-12 nixie tubes, an IN-15b nixie tube, and a high voltage power supply. For more electronics projects, see smbaker.com
