Black and white? This KZitem nostalgiafest gets self-defeating at times. There's a reason TVs could be made like this then and couldn't be now. This was the technological limit of what could be produced in bulk at the time. Maybe there were colour sets, or high def sets, in labs- but no-one would have been able to afford these sets in the real world or find anything apart from black and white NTSC programming to watch on them. The alternative to owning a TV like this was... no TV. Now we've got easily available technology to produce much more advanced and versatile TVs. Why would anyone want this type of TV back?

63-37 is the good stuff. 60-40 was the alloy they used before they knew a lot about metallurgy. Then they discovered 63-37 has a slightly lower melting point and transitions more quickly from liquid to solid as it cools. I think it's also a fair amount stronger. It's a more finely tuned alloy, slightly more expensive because tin costs more than lead. 60-40 is fine, 63-37 is ideal. Honestly I can't tell the difference using them.

63/37 is slightly superior to standard 60/40 solder. 63/37 is a true eutectic alloy that melts at 183° 60/40 melts at 188° As the melting point is a single temperature it will transition to a melting faster than non-Eutectic alloys which means less chance of cold joints. In non-Eutectic alloys one metal will melt before the other. The cost difference is minimal. I've used 63/37 for decades with fantastic results.

30:45 OMG! My dad used to use those bulbs or something like them when taking 8mm movies of birthday parties inside. He had a green metal contraption (that looks like today's sound bars) that had at least three sockets, which always had at least one open because if he used all three bulbs the ancient screw-in glass fuses in the basement would blow, leaving the house in complete darkness. Those bulbs were as bright as the sun, and just as hot! To make this vid any more nostalgic for me , the elders would have to be drinking Schafer beer in a welded steel can for which you'd need a "church key" puncture-type opener. And when you run out of cans, you pop over to the local tavern and pick up an armful of those cardboard cylindrical quart containers of Draft beer.

Loss of the filament connection was very common with those early large 12-pin bases. Usual fix was to crimp the pins to restore the connection (quick & dirty) or to reheat and resolder the pins (better). The sockets were also a problem, particularly with cheap partial sockets. Usual fix was to replace them as most were constructed to discourage disassembly/reassembly.
