 In my senior year of high school, the [[http://www.nutsvolts.com/index.php?/magazine/issue/2006/10|October 2006]] issue of [[http://www.nutsvolts.com/|Nuts and Volts]] featured an article about a Nixie tube clock.  The [[http://www.nutsvolts.com/index.php?/magazine/issue/2006/09|previous issue]] had discussed a high voltage power supply built around a PIC microcontroller.  I had been experimenting with PIC microcontrollers for quite some time before and I was intrigued by the prospect of using a PIC microcontroller to generate a rather high voltage from a logic-level supply.  I didn't have much use for it, though.  After seeing the Nixie clock article, I now had the perfect application for it.  So, I bought several tubes off of ebay, direct from the Ukraine, and got to work.
