Welcome! You're in the right place. What era of TV are you planning on starting with: early bw, early color, solid state? There are a number of good books, but some are better for one type of set than another. You will find that the safety aspect really isn't that bad, just common sense stuff. This can be a very rewarding hobby.

Thanks! I'd really like to do early color sets - I'd love to find an old RCA CTC-16 (or the Zenith equivalent) console "roundie" set and restore it to pristine condition. I also like the first color portables Zenith made - they had very high picture quality.
