I buy 4 digit displays from http://www.sureelectronics.net/ , usually through their eBay store. For about 15 US you get an spi display that works exactly with the code in your lookup table and it is about 32mm tall, 1 1/2 inches tall. These displays can be hooked together using cables supplied with them to make several digit displays. BTW, God helps us every day, that's why we do not starve.
