Steve from RetroTech did a panel at Retro World Expo that Chris aka Dubesinhower was kind enough to record! The panel showed both safety and maintenance tips, as well as the tools you can use to get the job done. If you’re curious about what it’s like to work on a CRT, this is a fun look at what to expect!

In my opinion, this is the perfect examples of why live panels are so fun: The previous panel ran late, so Steve was still setting up when this started. Then, a few minor things went wrong during the presentation…which I think really added to the whole experience. Both because something will always go wrong when you’re modding 20-30 year old electronics, so it’s good to get used to it. But also because Steve did such a great job rolling with it and making it entertaining for everyone in the crowd.
So, if you like CRT’s like Steve, or just want to watch a fun live panel, give this one a try!
