I go thru a few a year in automotive radios where the customer wants a drive up quick fix. All the paper caps were previously replaced but the 0Z4's often fail to start in 3-5 years or last forever.

I should just build a SS replacement in a dead metal shell since all rebuilds in the last 20+ years use SS or Ive used 6X5's long before that when the socket had filament pins. Its another roundtoit issue Roll Eyes

I have one of those tubes.  I got it in a box full of stuff from an estate. I looked it up at the time and decided that it's not something that I'll ever use, so I did with it what I do with most things that I'll never use: I kept it.
VERY wise decision.............I do the opposite and when the need arises, I go back out and buy.........BIG junque boxes and large sheds that are organized are the only way to go in this hobby.

at some point a boat is a ship, and a shed becomes a building. What is the defining point between building and a shed? Lights? a/c? How can one say when one is in too deep?

A ship carries boats but not the other way is the Navy definition.
