Interesting way to give an old TV a new lease at life. My questions: How did you remove the coating from inside the face of the tube and how did you make an opening in the back without shattering the whole thing? I assume that the neck, complete with the guns would have to be removed too, or did you just coat the inside with something to protect the fish against the sharp metal objects?
A fascinating project, this telefishion of yours.

Uhhhh...I'd look at that a bit closer John. All they did was gut the set and set a square tank inside.Beosystem10 said:Interesting way to give an old TV a new lease at life.

In my defence it was early in the morning |-) but yes, looking at the picture again now, I see the edges of a more normal fish tank shaped thing.....But who'll be the first to evacuate a TV tube and fill that with fish?
I think the guys on the show "Tanked" did it or had the Plexiglas or whatever formed to fit. I'd have to look for it though...Beosystem10 said:....But who'll be the first to evacuate a TV tube and fill that with fish?
