taking apart an old oscilloscope - danger?

hey, i have gotten an old (1950's) tektronix type 310 scope that i want to gut and use for a pc case. i don't want to kill myself, so is there anything i need to do or be aware of? It does not work and has not been used for at least 20 yrs, so would components still be carrying a charge and if so what do i do about them. as it is not working, keeping parts intact is not an issue... i've attached a few pics thanks for any advice. About the only real danger is implosion of the CRT. That's a nice classic instrument though, it'd be a real shame to tear it apart if it's complete. At the very least save the CRT, tubes, tube sockets, transformer and other parts as they're hard to find and useful parts. |
