Perhaps not... jr crazy idea for the day:
Apply some sort of pattern to the face of the tube, transfer letters, decal, felt tip pen, whatever you have handy.
Install tube in the box and illuminate face with bright flashlight. Fenix MC-10 shown here.
View on screen approximately 31 inches from the corrector plate... Align for best image.
Of course, the set up could be much better, but this was just a quick n dirty experiment to illustrate the concept, using a washing machine instead of a flat level table as an "optical bench" and a clipboard with white piece of paper instead of a proper screen.
