CRT Resurrection Manual: Bring Dead Screens Back to Life

A forgotten CRT monitor isn’t junk—it’s a sleeping giant.
The CRT Resurrection Manual is a step-by-step, no-nonsense guide for hackers, tinkerers, retro gamers, and hardware archaeologists who want to restore and repurpose old cathode ray tube monitors.

Inside you’ll find:

• Tools & safety: everything you need (and how not to fry yourself in the process).
• Diagnostics flowchart: how to figure out what’s wrong, fast.
• Capacitor & flyback repair: the black magic of CRT revival, explained in human language.
• Recalibration & tuning: fixing geometry, convergence, and color so your screen looks brand new.
• Creative mods: turn CRTs into art installations, glitch instruments, or retro gaming beasts.

This isn’t a dry engineering doc. It’s written for hackers who like their manuals gritty, clear, and useful. Whether you want to flip CRTs for cash, keep one alive for your old console, or just enjoy resurrecting dead tech, this guide will take you there.
