I forgot I had pretty much NO depth perception with all the magnification....and I pretty much SMACKED the back of the thing RIGHT away with the screwdriver.

NOW I guess I'm done with that little set for now....until I find another CRT for the poor little thing. At least I know from subbing one of the Maggie CRTs from a Shadow the other day, that all it needs is the little CRT.
Ouch !! Do those l'il guys make that "Hissing" noise as they go to air ? I feel for ya, pal...That's one reason I don't work on 'em, I have HUGE ginormous paws, bad enuff in & of themselves, plus bein' TERMINABLY clumsy, & to top it off, I've lost a lot of dexterity due to a stroke, & Dear Old Uncle Arthur...
