That’s great to know there is another set like this in the works. Do you have any pictures of the set, or your restore to date?

I have no intention of breaking the safety glass off this CRT… there must be a better way. Time is no concern, so if a slow soak in some solution would work, that would seem a much better option. Last thing I want is glass shards all over the place. My wife would about disown me at that point. Not to mention I’d have a hard time living with myself if I ended up hurting someone in the process.

I’m a total newbie to working on a color set (have only restored two b&w sets to date), so I’ll be proceeding with extreme caution. I do have plenty of tube radio and audio experience under my belt, but this is a whole new adventure.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions, I’m enjoying just having this set in my possession for the time being.
