Will CRT rebuilders disappear in near future?

I get the impression that the couple companies left doing it (well, I only know of a couple) are being kept in business by industrial/commerical uses. Stuff like specialized monitors, arcade games, etc. Some of that will continue for a short while because some equipment would be too impractical to switch over to LCD or whatever. But we will live to see the day when nobody is doing it as a full-time business. As far as I've seen only Hawkeye is left doing color roundies-correct? It would be great if, should he look at leaving the business, advance notice could be given. That way some stashed-away duds could get rebuilt before he does. I have a couple up in the attic & I really don't want to spend the money on them right yet.
