CRT Mask
Hello.
Has anyone had success recreating the soft padded? CRT mask on an old Admiral TV set? (or any set) I have an Admiral 30A14 10" set that's missing a chunk of it's crt mask glued to the inside glass. (Photo below) I tried white 1/2" foam but it didn't look right, and the edges were jagged even after cutting with a new blade. What was the original material? Any help is always appreciated.

Jim,
I would cut a slightly oversize (so you won't see it) outline mask out of 1/8" tempered masonite, and hot glue some 1" wide x 3/8" thick, slate coloured door sealing felt to it in the I.D. to the shape of the mask. If you can find a square foot of 1/2" thick navy or slate colored felt and cut out the holr for the picture, so much the better. Rob |

looks like you could flip it over and make the missing part hard to see.(put it at the top)
if it were mine i would get some white foam board the same thickness and color and cut one out with a xacto knife.
