First Successful Rebuild at the Early Television Museum

Awesome.

Is the video of the rebuild work available anywhere?

Wow! I'm impressed... I would think that the oven temperature profile might be pretty good since the metal tube did not crack at the face plate or funnel seal.

Oven ramps are pretty inconsequential for B&W tubes, there's nothing to break really. As long as it doesn't heat or cool too fast there's really no risk there, and the oven at the museum leaks quite a bit still. Once it's sealed up better and has more insulation the controller may come into play, but for right now we pretty much just let it run how it was gonna run and it worked.
