For the folks with the loose tube bases - how did you get adhesive down into the base?
I wouldn't be too sure, I still have some serious cabinet work to do.

As for the tube bases I use Phil's method, squirt some Silicone in around the edges and call it a day. Trying to grind a hole in the end is way too risky, you might break of the evacuation nipple.

Are you talking about the CRT in this case?

For those who don't know, the CRT in the Hallicrafters is held in place only by the front mask and the base of the CRT, I think Silicone is fine for the job in this case.
