VT71 crt mask

Dave, the two I've done fit perfectly. As the rubber is new and the glass on the crt is perfectly clean, it can stick as you put it on. On one I used a little talc as a lubricant and on the other just a little water so it would evaporate away. Both worked great and seated perfectly on the crt. Trying to put it on dry would definitely be tough and not recommended. I would expect they had to do something similar originally as they would have had the same problem.

You tell me if it isn't a perfect fit.
