I drove about 150 miles to pick one up from the city I go to regularly to vacation in anyway, so it wasn’t out of my way, but was a distance I drove with the intent to pick up a CRT.

What was awesome is that I got super lucky and managed to find 2 32” AA-2D chassis Trinitrons within a week or so of each other including the above 150 mile trip and picked them both up with the intent to RGB mod them both, sell one and keep the other. Worked out as planned for me. Learned a lot and still loving the one I kept!

In fact, here’s the one I kept:

What method did you use to remove the screen? Taki Udon said the included pry tools weren’t very good, did you use those? Did you end up marring the black paint on the bezel like him? How difficult was the screen removal? Was it super scary?

I’ve got experience repairing Apple products, so i could probably handle this, but I’m not sure it’s worth the risk.

absolutely! I hope that these subs can gain traction enough that we’re able to start doing a regular listing thread for folks looking to get into CRT gaming, or to make sure the set they can no longer keep goes to a good new home!

These are excellent options. I’ve used that shmups thread a ton, but you’re right. It’s super hard to parse. I really wish it was broken out or consolidated into a more usable format.

What’s an ego-shooter?
