Rescued old CRT (imgur.com)

Rescued old CRT I put a lot of work in. Was totally dead when I got it, rescued it to be almost perfect again.

It still has an intermittent horizontal size issue and the power button has some cosmetic wear. But at least the power button works, it used to only work when you would hold it down.

Be sure to enable the audio for some good retro tunes coming from the monitor.

Really cool find and great work with the refurbishing.

I've picked up a 14" Bush CRT with a VHS player and a 29" Ferguson that people put out next to the rubbish bins. They both need repairs, but they kind of work. It's so cool to play the old consoles in these! And there's a special thing about playing a video cassette for those of us who grew up with it 😬
