Tubes that I've repaired had already begun separating from the glass envelope so I haven't had to deal with breaking the adhesive bond. To separate the bakelite from the glass would require some research. The wires are actually inside the pins. The pins are actually hollow and filled with solder to hold the wire inside the pin. The tips are then generally filed smooth making the pin appear solid. The easiest method I've found is to use a suction iron to remove the solder from the pins. When reinstalling the base you'll likely need to lengthen the wires using old through hole resistor wire clippings. After lengthening the wires make sure to place shrink tube over the joint between the wire and the wire clippings. It will help prevent them from separating when you re-solder the wires to the pins by refilling the pins with solder. Here's a video showing the general procedure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j71h_WJ_l5s On Thursday, September 22, 2022 at 11:04:22 AM UTC-4 [email protected] wrote:
