Hi all,
just a very quick update on the Baird.
Progress seems slow at the moment as I am also working on the HMV 905.

Another transformer clamp and the focus coil have been cleaned up and painted. No photos of these yet.

The PSU chassis now has an EHT transformer thanks to Mike Barker. This is from and HMV 1805. It fits the mounting holes, but is a bit taller than the original transformer, so I will have to re-make the bracket for the EHT rectifier to be a little taller.

I'm also making up a tube clamp. This is based on the early type of TV22 (non-ion trap CRT) of which I have included a photo. It is made of 1mm thick brass.

That's all for now.

Cheers
Andy
