I spotted these at my local Jaycar this morning for only $2.95 each, so grabbed a few. They are probably cheaper direct from China, but not a bad price for a retail store.

Haven't seen VFDs for sale since the late 90's... now I just have to figure out what I should build to make use of them...

I bought a couple of such displays in the 90's... Still don't know what to do with them and I likely threw them out a while ago. My advice: only buy parts you need for a current project otherwise you end up with a hoard of unused parts like me.

SHMBO to Brumby what did you buy 'this time'   :-DD

When you reach the point of not wanting to or being able play with fun toys then is life worth living? Lots to be learned playing with new or offbeat stuff and for very few $ in this case.

We have some sulphur crested cockatoos taking an unhealthy interest in our house and need some discouragement.

As for other purchases, I've had to wind back on that until I can make room to:
 1. Organise garage and other areas so that I can:
 2. Store what I have in an accessible manner
and
 3. Work on/utilise existing acquisitions.

Current plans and budget are directed towards storage products.  *sigh*
