- The progress on the F tube development in the past weeks was small, but considering the limited time, it is still a success. Sealing machine is waiting for renovation, I also found a supplier of P2 material for anodes of the nixie tubes.
Thank you for your continuous support!

I feel your pain in my bones when you said "...a couple of...fuckups"
It's never a good feeling to admit defeat and cancel a project
I am fine with it, a lot of dead ends need to be explored.. but for colleagues it might be more difficult to see a lot of their work being scrapped..
You're not alone my friend, pretty much every industry in every country is having the same issues with slow sales and inflation sadly I don't see that changing in the next 18 months. All we can do as business owners is continue to find sales where and when we can. I wish you luck as I love seeing what you are doing in your video updates.
And from what country are you making such claims?
If the communists and shadow elites are pushed back, as is the trend, most importantly in the US, the world will turn around quickly.
@@ShainAndrews I’m based in the UK and have friends and contacts across multiple industries who are all seeing the same. Couple that to talking with my distributors around the world.
I see the same, multiple businesses around the world, suppliers in many industries.. There are many businesses that thrive (defense industry hiring a lot..), but the lower apetite for spending is universal at thge moment I gues..
@@daliborfarny Your graph was identical to us, During the pandemic when people had money to spend and no place to go we boomed, once the pandemic ended and we returned to normal followed by two wars and multiple elections coupled with the increase in energy costs sales slowed. We get emails daily for suppliers asking for work and those suppliers are across multiple industries not just the HighEnd/Ultra High End Audio business like myself. I have had conversations with other companies in my own industry where the question is what are we doing wrong and the surprise when you say nothing your not alone is almost a relief.
Hello Dalibor, I am following your activities since the times when you worked in a small shed. You have done a fantastic job transforming your passion in tangible, great tube artwork. I keep my fingers crossed that you find the right path for your business! Greetings from Germany.
Hello! Thats some ten years already, time flies.. Thank you for the wishes!
Thank you for the news ! Last month we bought a Bulb clock as retirement gift for a electronician colleague. My, he was stunned and grateful ! I whish you all the best, and I'm confident F tube will be awesome !
I'm glad to hear that the "R" tube will be available again and that the company is focusing on building nixie tubes. Thanks for not letting the nixies die, I really appreciate your work.
You have nothing but my highest respect and appreciation for dedicating so much time and effort in the matter of keeping Nixies alive, I am sure you these set backs will look nothing but a scratch in the retrospective in a few years. You came so far, those hickups won't get you down
Thank you for honest analytics about your company!
1:33 Awesome! I love you're also doing things different from the regular Nixie tubes.
Thanks for your honesty and openness - not beating around the bush! Watching your videos and seeing your fabrication makes me wanna pack up my lab here, move down to Czech Republic and work for you.
Wild to see my home state of New Jersey actually mentioned positively for a change!
i mean your state has one of the four coolest battleships ever named after it.
@@manitoba-op4jx is true. Have toured the New Jersey many times, it is really cool!
👍
With the steel how about contacting customers of it, and seeing if they have any part rolls or excess in the thickness you need that they are willing to sell to you.
good idea!
hey dalibor, thank you so much for the openness with which you give insight into your business. the passion you show is truly astonishing. i love following your journey since a long while, and now, as i am thinking of turning a hobby into a business myself, it is just inspiring to see your dedication, as well as a great resource to learn. so from the bottom of my heart: thank you!
@daliborfarny I truly appreciate you sharing this journey with all that are interested. Startups are not easy under ideal conditions. Being an engineer myself I tended to have negative perceptions of marketing and sales. Until I became the communication bridge between sales and engineering. I think you need to reconsider your marketing position. Severing custom projects was a wise move. In my opinion you need to capture customers for current products. Get that revenue machine working. That will enable quality, and all the associated economies of scale.
Hi, thanks for the comment! I think I don't have negative perceptions of marketing/sales, these fields are just not intuitive for me. But I am aware of the power of marketing - people who are good marketers can build large successful businesses with often simple product/idea. "enable quality" and "economies of scale" are totally to the point here! The F tube should use both through the scale. I hope that focusing more on the R tube now I will go the same direction.. Cheers!
díky za tohle video, mnoho lidí se o tyto problémy veřejně nedělí, Velice zajmavý
Právě, potom to vypadá, že vše je všude napulírované.. troška autenticity 👍
Rád sleduji vaši cestu. Přeji ať se nadále daří 🙂
Amazing work, enjoying your progress! much love
Beautiful machine, excited to see it up and running again in the future!
I'm sure I can't afford one of those upright displays, but I want one. 😮
I wish you greatest success with this. I love NIXIES
Good Luck Dalibor!
I hope you manage to grow your business's and post more interesting videos about your Tube project.
Thank you, That's the plan!
i hope it will get sold for a affordable price really want a nixe tube clock. and i really like your videos have been a subscriber for 5 years now i think so keep the good work up 👍
Thanks for subscribing, and for the wishes!
i love what your doing great work
There's a few hot pockets you could tap into. Old bulbs (LEDs try, but they don't match - i've yet to find LED look alikes that fit the right theme), tubes for radios, tubes for (other) old electronics. I cannot state how much (within my own sphere) i stumble upon people who either buy or hoard these old glass based elements. You're already 50% there, you have mastery of glass, you have the equipment. Soon (fingers crossed) you'll have the machine to make these on the cheap(er)... might be worth looking into it. Just a thought.
i've decided to go back to incandescent lighting in my household as a 🖕to the US dept of energy for trying to ban them
Old bulbs are beautiful, I hope some businesses will continue to make them.. there is one in Switzerland I think. I will keep focus and stick to my nixies :-) cheers!
The most profitable tubes are directly heated power triodes
Dalibor, can you make the RCA paper available, perhaps in PDF format? Maybe it will revive some "old" memories and those people might contact you to share their "old" information with you?
Once the puri clocks are sold out. I'd love if the circuit schematics or even the PCB design was made public with open-source code.
Then we can make the clocks ourselves and buy the tubes for it. I think that would be a great electronics project for a lot of people.
This is something I am considering.. It is written for Particle Photon and lot of things are cloud based - so a port would be needed..
While ready automation may mean scrapping some interesting experiments, I just wish you to proceed and evolve into a self sustainable organism (it is already, yet I wish you rock solid stability).
i hope to one day see you expand past nixies and into cathode ray, magic eye, and other specialist tubes like the rare 12fq8's and such.
I will stick to nixie tubes as this is already a challenge.. But I hope someone else will take on the other tube types..
9:50 Interesting. Almost all old lamps (including diods, triods etc), which I saw, had this greyish metal inside.
So, probably, it has more advantages except "good looking".
I'm not sure that it is the main reason, but that greyish surface radiates heat from anodes far better than a silvery one.
When you look at power tubes operating at a dark red level, it makes sense...
It was developed to radiate heat, nixie tube engineers chose it beacause it was widely available for them and because it had the optical parameters suitable for nixies..
Cool
Sounds like you could use some automation. Because you need tubes on mass.
Zdravím Dalibore, ta odmlka byla dlouhá ale nedivím se. Máte toho "naloženo" opravdu dost a zvládnout to v této hodně pitomé době není lehké. Sleduji Vás dost dlouho a stále se nestačím divit co jste dokázal a doufám že ještě dokážete. Moc Vám přeji abyste toto období překonal a dál, nejen mě ale i ostatní, překvapoval Vaší genialitou. P.S. teda ten TOP SECRET projekt v čase 1:15 - 1:40 tak na to video se moc těším, nádherný digitron.
Zdravím Vás, děkuji za hezkou zprávu! Budu se snažit naši cestu více dokumentovat, mějte se :-)
I live near geneva, anyway i could get to see it ? will there be an exhibition ? or at a store ? Nice project, sad they were so secretive, the H tube project was great because of the openness!
I am not sure the Urwerk Space Time Blade is publicly accessible at the moment.. Will find out..
Will you sell bases that support four tubes (+colon) for a clock?
Sucks you had to give up some space! but hey if it makes money sense I guess..
It’s not “way how to.” It’s just “way to.”
I am sure that at least once I said it right! Will train my old brain to do better, though.. 👍
