I got the recoated CRT installed without any troubles
  I believe this chassis was originally designed for round CRTs because of a couple clues. One - This tube bumps into the CRT and there's no room to install a shield.  Two - The discriminator coil is mounted under the chassis. That gave me a headache while doing the alignment as the instructions for adjusting the top and bottom slugs are the opposite of what I needed to do. Sound is excellent now  I then fought with the ion trap magnet and centering rings to eliminate corner shadows and minimize distortion. Still not entirely happy, but it's not very noticeable while viewing programming.  So that's a wrap for the chassis restoration. Next up I'll arrange for a trip to reunite it with it's cabinet.

Another restoration that looks awesome! What's next on the restoration bench? Possibly a porthole or a remote set?

Nope. A Stromberg Carlson 21 inch tabletop I'm restoring for a client. I'll be starting a new thread soon.

Excellent restoration, Bob. I'm surprised they didn't recess that tube socket 1/4" or so below the chassis.

Yeah that would have been a simple solution. Perhaps I could drill out the rivets and recess it
