Title: non-working vacuum tubes
Post by: drventure on February 03, 2009, 10:25:19 pm

Ok, it's probably a stretch, but anyone here have any busted/blown vacuum tubes that they'd like to get rid of?

What, you mean old asteriods games weren't vacuum tube driven ;)

I'm in the Dallas TX area, and could pick them up.

Yes, they're actually for a Mame cab project I'm working on<g>

They don't have to work, but they need to be intact.

Otherwise, I guess it's off to ebay  :-\

Sort of. They're for an idea I have for a marquee

I was originally going to use real Nixie tubes, but someone on the board here suggested faking them up with Vacuum tubes and EL Wire.

I just don't want to sacrifice good tubes unless I have to :angel:
