If so I've got a pair of 21FBP22s and a maybe a leaky 21AXP22 that I'd consider offering up as guinea pigs.

Amazing progress on CRT Rebuilding!!

Although I have not been involved in the project, I have been reading the progress reports on the ETF's rebuilding efforts. WOW! Well done, everyone!

I really wanted to insert danging bananas here, but will not, out of respect.

Can't believe I missed this thread.

Yes, I will have an AXP with me. Don't drag all your tubes to the museum just yet though, I'm going to cook another B&W tube first to brush up and make sure the machines are working correctly. If so I'll pull the trigger on my own guinea pig and see what happens.
