Managed to catch the episode of "How It's Made" on vacuum tubes (audio tubes) through the on demand service on my cable.

Pretty interesting little segment that shows the production process inside a factory in the Czech Republic.

Makes you appreciate how amazing these things are. If only you could somehow build a computer using them... :wink:

I haven't seen that but have seen a Tube Depot video on youtube that dissects a 6L6 tube I think it was and with the aid of a medical camera that magnifies and takes you close in and the guy describes and explains each part of a tube.....I'm at work and blocked from youtube or I would put in a link to it.
