Ed's is cooler I think but I love this.

Had it for a couple of years now but decided I'd add a GPS module to it because the time drifted quite a bit and I like it to be accurate.

I think it looks like a bomb timer , the gps module just hanging out of it with a couple of LED's flashing makes it even more so.

The time is used to calculate the co-ordinates.

Guessing you purchased it as a kit? Got a link?
Also, what GPS module are you using?

You have to build it yourself and you'll also get done for customs, end up not getting much change from £100.

GPS module is a SirfIIe I think, was just about the cheapest one I could find on ebay.

That is very cool.

I liked the ones in Eds thread that are like the old fashoined bulbs with "floating" numbers in them

Nixie tubes, very cool also, from the same era as the VFD in this one.

Could certainly get in a lot of bother with it!

That is a very cool clock.

That's awesome.

Try and find one of those RC-XD's that HMV/Game were selling when black ops came out and attach it to that.
