<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 244859, member: 37"]Didn't really know where to put this but figured the tech geeks would find it here. This is a large General Electric 21" long cathode ray tube with a 12" diameter screen. It has what appears to be a US Navy stamp on it. Any idea of use? I see that some bring good money on ebay but there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason as to why. Those in working order obviously do better and I don't know if this works or not. </p><p><br /></p><p>A friend gave this to me and I thought I might make it in to a lamp but am having second thoughts. Is this more valuable as-is? There is a second one I could purchase so maybe one to sell and one for a lamp ..... LOL! Also, anything dangerous in there if I decide to drill into it and make it a lamp? Any and all thoughts are appreciated![ATTACH=full]75123[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]75124[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]75125[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]75126[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
