Um yeah, ditto that.. What I manage to do and its not easy but it works for me is I made a wooden structure that will house the CRT to bolt up to. This structure is bolted to my bench. There I have the neccesary room to work on the chassis and see what I am doing. I makeshifted a grounding strap for the CRT to chassis. The only thing that is whacked about the whole setup is the yoke wiring on some CRT yokes are too short and of course the usual anode lead only being a certan length make moving around the chassis a chore cause it's still the same problem with the CRT being in the way but it's alot easier.
