The clock : it uses german Z5600M tubes and 4 small neon lamps, the brains are an Arduino UNO R4 Wifi with the Arduinix (http://www.arduinix.com/) shield. It connects to my Wifi Accesspoint on startup and every friday to (re)synchronize. If you power it up while pressing the button, it will create an access point and a webpage, from which you can set up your local wifi info.

The amp uses the SGVU151 kit and IN-13 tubes. The audio part uses the ELA21306 board, as its power matches the speakers I want to use. It's okay for the moment, but I might swap if for something better if I want to revisit this project one day.

@dmeat It took you that long? I’m so glad. I’m building a music player for my daughters, with RFID cassettes. I started when the older one couldn’t read, so she could choose what she eats to hear from a picture and without having to use a UI. Now she’s 9. 🥺

@oscherler Yeah, life got in the way (and I have too many interests and ideas all the time). Keep on the projects going !
