Heathkit 295 from estate sale

[Chad Hauris]

This weekend at an estate sale I got this Heathkit from around 1967 for $12.50. It works well but will need the heat gun trick on the crt as there is pva deterioration.
There was also a '54 or so RCA b/w console with 21" metal crt, did not power up, they would not take less than $30 for it. I did not get it as I didn't want to take a chance on it having a bad crt...$30 is too much for me to spend on a b/w set that may need major repairs.
This picture is of the set on our adjustable height dolly. We have the crt to the rear of the dolly so I can work on the circuitry at the rear (will replace some paper caps.)
