Making a type C triode vacuum tube.

Recently I heard the nineteen year-old son of a friend say that he didn't have to learn how to do anything because he could always learn how to do anything from youtube. If he's right, this should be a cool Saturday project.

Either way I found this interesting, even artful. By the end the suspense was killing me. So much to learn, so much that could go wrong.

...right over my house in most models.

If I can figure out a way to turn on YouTube without power, I'll be home free if I need to build a tube radio, or fix my old Fender Guitar Amplifier.
