The nixie tube is a vintage display device which had been used until 70s when it was replaced with LED displays. The complex knowledge of manufacture of nixie tubes literally died with tube factory's engineers, glassblowers and machine operators.
I discovered nixie tubes in 2011 and since then, I've devoted all my time to studies of nixie tubes and its manufacturing processes. After years of intensive work, with help of many people, I eventually succeeded and have revived the knowledge and equipment for production of nixie tubes.

Dalibor; I am an electrical engineer - and I would simply like to say that this is NOT a tube! It is a masterpiece work of electrical knowledge, material science knowledge, glass-blowing skill, artistic ability, creativity, attention to process discipline, attention to process detail and craftsmanship in so many disciplines that just so happens to culminate in the form of a tube! Very well done! I can't convey just how impressive it is to watch your video!

I can add a word or two... as an Industrial Engineer (with automated machine prototyping/fine-assembly experience), CNC Machinist/Programmer, Welder and Special Effects Technician in the Vancouver film industry. I would like to recognize the scaling master-craft of the facilities and the production value put into the video quality and flow. Damn I wish I was European sometimes. It sometimes feels like I live in the woods in Canada. All my great bosses of the past were Europeans/Asians that lived here.

This man had to begin from the ground up in order to find a way to produce these tubes after years of trying, and now thanks to this video if by any reason he ever stops production someone else will have the bases with clear steps and explanations of why things are done that way. Much respect, thank you for doing this.

It is good to know that someone has revitalised these old techniques. When I was a child, every electronic device had vacuum valves - I remember looking through the vents of the portable record player, seeing the orange glow of the tube (for our US friends) heaters and wondering how the music came out. These were the days when tubes/valves were made in bulk - sadly most are gone now. I remember the small nixie tubes too - my school had a sixth form physics class build a clock with them. Silicon is great, but tubes have heart.

This video showcases a good man and master craftsman of a lost art. My father and I built a seven-segment Nixie Tube clock in the 1970s which sat in a place of honor on top of the television set for at least 20 years. Our original TV was 100% vacuum tubes including the tuner and 3-electron gun shadow-mask cathode ray tube that was a marvel of vacuum technology at the time. In 1975 I worked in the Motorola television factory in Chicago where they were still using vacuum CRTs. By then, all else had been transistorized and the first integrated circuits were coming into use.

I worked for EEV (English Electric Valve Company) for 17yrs as a stock controller and it always fascinated me how clever some of the technology and techniques were for making tubes. I used to Love watching the glass tube man turning glass on a lathe or the guys who used to grow carbon grids for the Klystrons that were as fine as a spiders web ! I think there was also a dept that made Nixie tubes of sorts, as well as the LCD screens. Clever people all of you :O)

This is incredibly impressive. I'm 46 and I am seeing a few people from younger generations doing stuff like this, and as an old guy it's encouraging to see not all younger people are wasting their lives, not bothering to do much of anything. Without a doubt, this will pay off for you in the long run, even if you made only standard nixie tubes, but making custom ones? You are going to be economically rewarded for this very quickly. Good luck from Australia!

The amount of work and specialised tools that go into this craft is beyond reason. Bravo, dude! Bra-vo! I also liked you didn't fill the clip with music or blabber. It's the kind of stuff that is best backed by the blow torch and electric motors and all the machinery working with you side by side to create this awesome piece of art. And it is, by any account, an art.

I've noticed that alot of the comments here are pretty recent relative to when this was posted. I hope that's an indication that fascination with old technology is on the rise and more people will look into stuff like this.

Excellent video and truly a lost art. I actually wrote the ISO9001 procedure for Kevex X-ray when I worked there early 90s making X-ray tubes. Wish I had good photographic capability then to document it. Biggest difference is we used liquid nitrogen to,cool getters during forming/flaring and annealing.
