Hi

You do find them occasionally but normally attached to a CRT already.

I've made PDA connectors using springy phosphor bronze and 3D printed cups using a flexible plastic like Ninjaflex. With care you can produce a convincing looking connector.

Most importantly, did you get the CRT working? If so, I could probably
learn from your project!
Further to that, does anyone know of a source to the smaller anode clips
- as the CRT has an anode socket about 4.8mm in diameter. This is
smaller than the common type, I think.

scalpel to cut them loose and then carefully peel them off as they had
almost fused to the glass, probably from the plastizicer had evaporated
but also left a thin film on the glass that worked almost like glue.

I tried to put them in warm water to soften them but I was afraid that
they would shrink and crush the tube so I didn't use water that was
hotter than from the water tap at home and that was not enough.

     Hi all

     I have a crt with what looks to be a protective plastic sleeve over
     the socket and gun end (pictured: https://imgur.com/9exmkCq
     <https://imgur.com/9exmkCq>). It isn't coming off with gentle
     pressure, are there any tricks other than careful destructive removal?

     Thanks
