All y'all that care about such things probably got this e-mail too 
but it still seemed worthy of mention.

All y'all know that the Korg NuTube is, in essence, a modified 1980s style VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) that focuses on the triode aspect of the VFD to use it as an amplifier element
Price is right and it's a kit (which is good for folks with the kind of wood or metal working skills I have!).

Well played sir
On topic.
Thanks Mark.
That was a thing I've been looking at with interest.

So the question is, Mark, are you going to order one? You can always put it on the shelf with the other projects that are waiting to be finished.

I wonder if anyone has put a motorized volume pot on one of these to be able to use a remote. If there was some general instructions on how to do so I would build one of these guys myself.
