Just a regular old BPC with faux woodgrain, my Samsung.

I've been able to dial the convergence in pretty much spot on vertically. The scanlines are freakishly sharp now. But I can not get the blue gun to horizontally line up just right. All of the purity rings are just messing with the blue gun at 45 degree angles. Is there something I'm missing? It's no big deal but I tend to be a perfectionist at times and this is one of those times I'd really like to get that blue gun in shape.

I can't get the model number right this second, but I can tell you the CRT is a pull from Ms. Pac Man (no burn in), which was the same exact part number as the original CRT in this set. If it helps at all in how it's converged.

Almost any in line CRT uses the same setup procedure. Use almost
any manual. Mark where the rings are FIRST then go at it. I found
for me in lines just fall in place accidently by fiddling. Delta tube
are easier to understand so they just take a few seconds even without
a generator to do the center.

It's been tough moving these rings.. One of them had the tabs break. They are so stuck. I should have lubricated them before putting them on.
