About 15 hours worth of work, never mind workouts, I'm sore this morning.
I discovered 2 9500s that I 'forgot' I had, they'll be converted to Ultras shortly.
Now I can work on cars again!

Yeah, I was just going to say it was sure a good thing the lens caps were on that Runco!

I realized that it cost me about $2K in shipping to get the discarded sets to me.. and even on the marquees, I pulled out little from the sets other than the HVPS. I've got so many spare parts... oh well.. I was kinda proud that I'd accomplished something this weekend.

I threw them out. Not Ultra LVPS, and I've got 20+ here already. Ditto for the lenses. They were dirty between the elements, and I've got 6+ sets here.

No, 1209s. I threw out two. One was a SEOS unit with 60,000 hours + on it, the other was a Data 1209s with a burnt motherboard that I had parted out partially.
I did uncover a couple of Runco 1100s as well from HTs that I am going through. Low hours, light 16:9 green wear.

the support of the tubes might be helpful for those who are interested to modify their 808's projectors for mount 9" tubes.

Sorry, all gone to the recycler already. I've advertised those before with no takers. At the price of 9" sets now, why bother modifying 8" sets, just buy a 9".

It's only $600 to ship.
I diverted my attention to inside the shop yesterday. 5 more projectors gone, am about to take one last look at the 6 flatscreens I've got here, and then those are dying as well.
Still, it's impressive to see a row of six 909s in the shop, with an original retail price of $300K.
It did get me to thinking though that I really need to put my HT together.. NOt sure whether I should put up stacked 909s, G90s or 2008 vintage 9500 Ultras....

Nicely done. I've been going through the 400 sqft crawl space I have. 15 garbage bags so far. I don't know why I keep packing stuff house to house, but I do. Tough love feels good when you see the space open up.
