It looks like a nicely made machine. I'd probably make a ring for those 4 posts the cone of the tube rests on to support and restrain the tube better. I don't know if you will ever encounter some of the tubes we have here in the USA, but I'd consider making the loop capable of holding a 27" CRT and I'd make the neck hole capable of handling 2x the standard monochrome neck diameter to handle pre-1965 color tubes and electrostatic deflection tubes like the 7JP4 and it's scope tube cousins.
