I had always heard that Sony was exceptionally nasty about keeping people from rebuilding their jugs. Either this was not true or there were cracks in the system that allowed some to slip through.

The problem is getting replacement electron guns. It is very unlikely anyone in the USA is able or willing to tool up to do this work. I think the only place left that makes television jugs is in India. I am curious where the rebuilders in the video got the replacement gun for the Trinitron jug they rebuilt. There is also the issue of people who can do the work.
