geez what a can of worms i opened up here, I dropped the old monitor off at a specialty recycling center by my office today. And yes I did realize not to touch anything metal and rubber was ok. I think anyone else who wants to call out on this can, I got it done and those who helped thanks.
here is the 2nd video so far.

Great video ctozzi -- I love to watch these ... Especially restorations - I wish more of them were made.
Good job so far, and good luck with the rest. Can't wait to see more.

Really? That thought process, and the same physical handling, would get him hurt if he were decasing a TV. Same "common sense" thought process, right? Just don't touch the PCBs? The difference there is that on a lot of CRT TVs the mounting bracket is live.

yeah no problem. it's just that people like to fix em rather than toss em. Sometimes all it takes is a $12 cap kit to revive a dead monitor (or even less when it's a fuse or single transistor, etc, etc). You could have sold it for $25.
