frency,
Congrats on winning that 16. Its a sharp set. I took a few pictures of cateract work on a 68 magnavox console I had (that "old tv nut" owns now) You can get an idea what you are in for by looking at this old thread:

I wish I took more pictures durring the process to show exactly how it looks as you are heating the glass. I did this so those new to cateract work can see how exactly this works. I have used the heat gun method on all RCA tubes and it works great every time. Only thing I make special note too all, is to never use the heat gun method on a zenith CRT with "green halo" as air pockets do not form on this type of PVA and will crack the lens. Only use the "hot wire" techniqe on zenith tubes.
