   I made a PCB containing 3 digits (and a '1' digit plus a slash   
   character) all from strings of red LEDs. It also had a LED   
   clock chip.  This was about 16 years ago so I am sure the LED   
   clock chip is no longer available.  Your local thrift store   
   probably sells N+1 LED clocks good for the critical parts.
