This video shows the making of a triode valve by a French radio enthusiast.

(The video is near the foot of the page. It runs for 17'09" )

What a fantastic video.

kcriste,
Have you seen the hobby welders that people use to assemble batteries. link

They come out like this,


Mike.

I guess that would work pretty well. I think I remember that schematic being posted here a while ago.

He probably made a lot of hist equipment himself.

I wonder what he does for a living.

yeh that oven looking contraption looks to be homemade. I can't believe he went as far as to blow his own glass containers also. I mean making the guts is complicated enough without even thinking about the glass tube and vacuum for it to go in. You know as much as he spent on the equipment he probably coulda got some made in china to fill the entire room. rofl.
