Thanks all for the positive comments.

Here’s some more photos from the disassembly.

I find it quite amusing to see, the evolution of smoothing caps been added onto and then disconnected still in the chassis lol

The dial appears to be stuck. I think this is to do with dry grease.

Tomorrow eve I will do a slow power up to determine the condition of the Tube, with just EHT supply, without the HT to the rest of it to see if it’s possible for it to produce a blob on the tube face.

I’m not optimistic about plugging it in and reforming now I’ve seen the state of smoothing mess. I’ll need to have a think about my next approach.
