Hey Tim,

Way to go on the cataract surgery! Were ya' scared? I gotta try this when I get the nerve.

You will have to put the safety glass back on to use the tube. I supported the CRT face up and using 3 popsickle stick segments inserted a half inch at 120 degree intervals to create an air space to the cover plate ran an bead of clear RTV silicone around the gap. The next day I pulled the wood spacers and filled the holes left with RTV as well. No way dust or silicone grease can creep into the gap like it could with the old rubber gasket used with the 21FBP22 setup and make a mess in the picture area. Make sure your inside glass surfaces are scrupulously cleaned.

Rob
