    this is a cool clock

    but a clock which is a kit you must build yourself shouldn't cost this much: http://hcm.im/13019

    I think it's the VFD, combined with the sourcing. It's like ham kits, they don't cost that much if you source all the materials yourself, and etch a PCB at home. You're paying someone else to etch, and source materials.

    The Heathkit digital alarm clock was $30 in 1975 dollars. What would that be today?
