CRT rebuilding in Poland

[ppppenguin]

This is on the USA based Videokarma forum: http://videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=273434

A Polish guy has started to rebuild CRTs. It's not easy to assess his work but it can only be a good thing if somebody apart from the ETF guys are having a go.

My Polish is non-existant but here are the links he gave from the VK thread:

That's very encouraging but it sounds like this guy needs to acquire a lathe for neck operations.
Spotty screen??

Just for fun, I played the video and used my phone running Google Translate with microphone input to do the translation.

Whilst far from perfect, it was understandable!

In this post the Polish guy admits the lack of a glass lathe is a problem:

Did you see his other thread too?

No. I havn't visited VK since this morning. That's seriously ambitious. The target of an iconoscope is a fiendishly hard thing to make.

I'm not a TV enthusiast (mainly due to lack of interest in the material available for viewing on the finished product)... But this is good news, the skills are being kept alive!

Aleksander Zawada is a member of my neonixie-l forum - he has a thread about the monoscope there...

I'm sure that Leningrad T2 will explain soon.

Maybe like the Tedham & McGee prototype?
