I just relieved my junk room of a dead 28" TV this weekend. I have ripped
several apart in the past and the salvagable parts are just not worth the
effort.

Just take it out to the curb about 2 days before trash pickup. It will
magicaly dissapear within 24 hours. Works well for old microwaves,
monochrome computer displays and even sofas on occasion. :-)

OTOH, old printers have lots of good stepper motors, gears, shafts and other
interesting parts to clutter up the junk box.

This NG is a wealth of knowledge, so maybe someone has a suggestion.

Bad tube.

The pack rat in me hates to just pitch it in a dumpster as one shop
advised.
Surely anything that heavy with metals has some recycle value. I'd go to
some trouble to get it to some one who could use it.

Any ideas?
