I picked up a 9VT1 similar to compucats and refinished it. Once my Dumont Manchu is done (it's close) the moto is probably next.

I also picked up a better blond cabinet with a melted mask... I'm planning to eventually take the good mask in my lousy blond cabinet out, make a mold so I can cast replacements then transfer it to the other cabinet.

In a search I've seen some use the 1N5408. Would either be appropriate? I've got a bag of 007s but none of the latter. Any advantage using one over the other?
