For those who don’t know Nixie tubes are electronic devices used for displaying numbers and other character using glow discharge. They date back to 1950s not used commercially anymore. Currently they do experience second life though, as people do tons of cool projects. In this instructable I will show you how to glow individual digits

Fixed a SONY PS-X75 Record Player (1980’s) with a blown MB8841-209L microchip. Fixed it with a Arduino Mega2560 Board and the fabulous Embrio Software. A long, long time ago in 1980’s Sony produced one of the best automatic record players the Sony PS-X75. The only problem was the main Microprocessor (IC) was prone to breaking.

There is a lot of interest these days among hobbyists in controlling brushless DC (BLDC) motors, which have improved performance and better energy efficiency over traditional DC motors, but are more difficult to use. Many off-the-shelf products exist for this purpose. For example, there are lots of small BLDCs controllers for RC airplanes that work
