Give him a hand, not a public spanking, Jesse is not the kind of guy who would mutilate a mint condition piece of gear, just for kicks or parts...
Sounds like someone in the same situation as me. I want to get into the hobby, but my parents don't have the same enthusiasm for old TV sets as I do. To my father, its all crap, and he wants it out of his house.
