I've just opened each of the links above in my browser without
any difficulty.  Has anyone else experienced problems?

The only link which is no longer active was in the opening
post of this topic.

Believing in something false doesn't make it true.
Thanks a lot for that link.  There is a lot fun reading there for sure.  Besides the information about vacuum tubes there is some neat info on how to stop robo calls and an interesting article about building a tuning eye tube from spare parts.  I am old enough to remember those and still have one radio that has one of them.

Just because it is on YouTube does not make it real.

Well, okay, as for the initial post of this thread, this is the site...

http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2008/01/make_your_own_vacuum_tube.html   

It actually doesn't load and run.   I just checked it in "Preview" a few seconds ago.    The others above, in previously posted Replies, weren't the file immediately above, and they are all valid addresses.

If you ever find a link not working or a website it's certainly worth trying a cache site, does not work every time but i have been able to read dead sites using the below method before to retrieve information.

It's not as complicated as it may seem...
Here is a link to his original page I think. The video appears to be on this page anyway.

Here is another video on tube making.
