One of the things I was thinking.... And one reason I believe b&w tubes will be the first to be done, and color a few years behind that....


jhalphen: Would you be able to write back with detailed description and if possible pictures of the procedure used by them for the exact process used to deconstruct, and rebuild a gun? What methods are used to measure spacing on an old gun before its taken apart? Do they deconstruct the entire gun, or just the end near the heater & cathode?

Do they re-manufacture the grid emements, or re-use those components reclaimed from the old gun?

And how is that glass bar made that holds all those elements together? Is it melted and the tabs pushed into the glass bar, or some other method?

Thanks....
