I just got my rebuilt CRT back from Hawkeye. I'm glad I had this old CRT box handy. It made shipping a breeze. I just put inside a slightly larger box with foam between.
That's real pretty. I wasn't expecting Scotty to recoat the DAG and put a label on it.
I haven't restored this chassis yet, so I'll have to pull out another chassis to give it a try.
This rebuild cost several times what I paid for the whole set, but I wanted to do it anyway. One, this is a 1st gen. 10FP4 from 1947 and I think it's cool to bring it back to life. Two, it's the only CRT I've ever had rebuilt. Hopefully, it won't be the last, but I fear it might.
