I did that back around 1985, using an RCA camcorder viewfinder. Mounted it in a small metal cabinet, with a rectangle bezel filed in the metal cabinet for the picture tube.

done it.....

about 20 years ago. Never built a box for it; I think after I got it running I tossed it in the junk box with a million other projects.

30-something years ago I took the tuner, IF and video modules from an upright Zenith chassis and put them in a small cabinet then used it to drive an oscilloscope. X,Y, and Z axis so I could watch TV on my scope in glorious light green-and-dark green.

Now you need to get a color wheel out of a DLP set and make a Color-Tel for it!

It is so much longer than its diameter, I think it should be made into a miniature 1939 RCA with the vertically mounted tube and mirror lid.

I have a box of old viewfinders, including one that is possibly beam-index color. Some day I will be "that bored" and do something with them.
