Members Chao Posted August 28, 2006 Members Share Posted August 28, 2006 This is rather a strange request, but I'm looking to play around with a bunch of varieties of bad tubes so I can make some Steampunk-ish halloween props. http://members.tripod.com/alish_poster_c/cityoflostchildren01.jpg Can anyone suggest where I might best look for bad (intact) tubes? If someone has a neat or large enough variety that they want to get rid of, I'd be glad to pay the fedex charges and give them extra for packaging up the glass. Thanks for reading!

Members El Glom-o Posted August 28, 2006 Members Share Posted August 28, 2006 You're just looking for tubes that are intact, not necessarily working or any particular type? How many do you need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many do you need? Ideally 5 or 6 of a couple of varieties that I can either use intact or cast in silicone and use for reference. I'll be lighting them up with LEDs not unlike cheap "tube sweetening" gear This is what inspired me: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7608402216But my love for retro gear suggested that I'd appreciate tubes more than making something up from scratch.
