Wonder if you could make some kind of slit for the light to show through for a post modern nixie like effect. Looks amazing for something so old

You got it from Sellam? I was too late or I would have gotten it as a spare. Best of luck on the restoration and take plenty of pics!listofoptions wrote: ↑23 Apr 2019, 00:52dont mind me, reviving this thread and all; but i just got one of these (weird terminal boards seem to fall in my lap sometimes). def looking forward to restoring, cleaning and converting!
