BIG 7-segment display

Over at Sparkfun they’re selling a relatively massive 7-segment LED display, measuring a highly legible 6″x3.3″. Finally, I can see what MIDI channel I’m using from down the hall!
Has anyone put one of these to work in a µcontroller project yet? We’d love to see it in action!

Of course, you could always make your own.

    I picked up an old deli sign counter and chopped one of those out of it.

    That was an awesome find lol

    these pale in comparison to an eight FOOT high seven segment display done by one of my colleagues, robert twomey, for his MFA thesis…
