[Heathkit] Tubes

[Walt dabell]

Tube heads,

While on the subject of tubes, I was reminded of a project
I wanted to try. I would be looking for larger tubes, something
classic like an 807 or a 3-500Z, bad ones that still have the
filament working. Or not. I want to use them for old-tech "candles"
so speak. A display, mounted on a small box with an appropriate
power supply underneath to make the filament glow. I also want to
try a few with a high output LED under or inside the tube. I'll
post pictures after I make some.

Any old defunct interesting looking tubes out there that anyone
would be interested in parting with for shipping and possibly a
small fee? The larger and more interesting looking, more "classic"
/old/well known transmitting tubes the better.

Please contact me off list.

Thanks!
