Eric: Was reasonably sure it was one of us here who had bid that high on a set that obviously needed work. Had to make sure it was headed for a good home, though. You never know what ideas some filthy-rich fool might dream up. I'd hate to hear of an authentic 621 being retrofitted with a modern color chassis. I'd love to borrow a cabinet to take some exact measurements to verify the accuracy of my preliminary sketch eventually. I have a feeling I did a reasonably good job with photos of that empty cabinet that Kevin W. bought and its overall dimensions, though. Once I find a cabinet maker who can build a scale model suitable to fit a 5" CRT (B/W or color), I hope to release a replica that's clearly specified as such to curb some hobbyists' interest in gutting real antiques. Preliminary quotes for having a cabinet custom-built, though, indicate that the cost is high.
