Visitors to “normal” museums are not learning much from static displays. For vacuum tubes, not only will the tube-based gear be set up for real access, but part of the plan includes an actual tube production line. And, there will be a variety of educational learning experiences, and also hands-on workshops. I am hoping to get a decent building donated before the end of the year.
