Username1, I'm not sure what you are getting at. We are already fusing a new piece of glass to the old shell, and we are planning to rebuild the gun, since the supply of guns is very limited. The only materials we need are neck glass, stems, cathodes, heaters, and spacers. Neck glass and stems will never be a problem - there will always be glass fabricators that will do custom jobs. Cathodes and heaters may become problems at some time in the future, but are available now. If it appears that the supplier may stop making them, we will order a large quantity.
So, I don't see any need to ever change our rebuilding method and evacuate the entire oven.
As for cleanliness, Hawkeye was very un-clean, and yet they produced high quality rebuilds. Our facilities and oven will be much cleaner.
