I was lookin' on that unnameable auction site, and found an auction for a
4-1000A anode cooler.
And I thought about the last swap fest, where I scored some tubes very
similar to 2C39s -- big finned external anode jobbers..
An anode cooler is $10. A dud 2C39 is 10 cents. Has anybody tried
removing the anode structure from one of these tubes to use as an anode
cooler?
I'm debating whether to try, but since I don't have a lathe or a bandsaw,
the task would be difficult. Exposure to toxic materials is not an issue
-- I have appropriate tools and techniques to keep myself and my
surroundings safe.
Comments?
