I just watched that whole thing. I think those machines were beautiful in design. There's a tungsten plant right down the street from where I work. They still make some of the wire, with the same machines that were making it in "the day." When you see that, it's harder to complain about the price of the NOS tubes.

They look a bit wider than a standard ECC 83 - I wonder if they will fit in the shielded sockets that our amps have... Add to that there statement that you have to put a dampening ring around it because of microphonics in a guitar amp... Still I'd like to hear some audio samples... Look forward to your report, Myles

Cool Video!. I make equipment like this for a living for a lighting company. We still make the Moly and tungsten powders and wires that Tom mentioned above. Most of the equipment needed to seal and evacuate valves is identical to incandescent lamp making. Most CAM driven, fast, and accurate. Sadly most of this equipment will be mothballed soon due to the regulations on Incand lamps..... so stock up now bosy and girls...cuase you wont be able to buy um soon. John in the UK can confirm this as their Ban started this year..
