LISTEN UP------DO NOT EVER TRY TO SAW OFF A PRESSURE BAND ON A LIVE TUBE!!
REPEAT---------DO NOT EVER TRY TO SAW OFF A PRESSURE BAND ON A LIVE TUBE----OR YOU WILL BE VERY SORRY!!!!

ALSO DO NOT EVER PUT A TUBE IN THE COOKING OVEN TO BE EVACUATED WITH A PRESSURE BAND STILL ON THE TUBE. THE STATEMENT FROM dieseljeep ABOVE IS FALSE.

THE SAME RESULT WILL OCCUR ON BOTH WARNINGS IF YOU DO NOT HEED THEM! BOTH STATEMENTS ARE GUARANTEED 100%


I KNOW OF TWO AMATEUR "TV REPAIRMEN" WHO THOUGHT THEY KNEW BETTER THAT WISH THEY KNEW THESE TWO FACTS YEARS AGO.

LARGE CRT'S ARE NOT TO BE PLAYED WITH IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. EVEN SCRATCHING A CRT IS VERY LIABLE TO CAUSE IT TO IMPLODE and we always disposed of scratched tubes.
