If you like Geiger counters then you should check out the ultramicron[0][1].
It is a small build using a soviet Geiger-miller tube for detection.

I really want one, but I have no soldering ability.

Oh very interesting project! The thing is indeed very small for a counter with
a Geiger-Müller tube.

Yeah seems like it requires surface soldering, plus the doc in russian: not
the easiest assembly.

Thx for sharing!

I wish I could buy one, but the author is an extremely anti-consumer person. I
would love to some of these for testing.
