  • This man does precise work. Thanks for sharing

  • mutch better than trowing the tv away! YOU ROCK!

  • Question.... Isn't there going to be a problem with the 2 reflecting surfaces creating a corona effect like in air-couppled projection sets?

  • nice demo.. btw why didn't you just apply pva and fix the lens?

  • I have a question why you need to put the lens on CRT instead of just putting on the TV with out the lens.

  • Cool demonstration. I would not have thought this to be possible.

    I would have used foil backed tape around the edges. I think it would deteriorate slower than packaging tape.

  • Silly question i know...But does a CRT like that, hold a charge once removed from the case? I am just learning about old tv's.

  • its the flyback that holds the charge. old or new.

  • @hellsmaw84 Not the flyback, the tube itself does.

  • The CRT holds no charge... The flyback transformer holds the charge.

  • LOL, I think you need to brush up on your electronics a little bit bud...

  • The glass of the CRT, along with the conductive surfaces on both sides of the glass (lots of surface area) acts as a large capacitor which holds the charge. Flybacks do not hold a charge, sorry. The CRT glass acting as a capacitor also serves as a filter for the high-voltage.

  • Correct.

    The flyback transformer is nothing more than a bunch of wire when its got no power on it.

  • Its not a silly question!! How else would you learn if you dont ask!! ;)

  • Very impressive!

    Do you replace the PVA or install any other bonding agent?

  • I want to learn to do this with CRTs

  • Great videos! I see on your projector that you made this on my birthday! Aug. 5
