WTB Wells Gardner K7000 19in tube and chassis

[illproducer]

Looking a Wells Gardner K7000 19 inch tube and chassis or a similar arcade monitor that can fit in a hursit Capcom mini cute repro.

I’m located in NYC area and willing to make a day trip for the right working monitor with minimal to no burn in. Thanks

I was hunting for the same exact setup for a hursit mini cute I recently found.

I got my k7000 chassis from here:

For the tube, I hunted down ALL of the 19in consumer CRTs around me . Got them for free to $30. Then I followed what this guy did to measure the yoke and confirm it would work. There was also a few threads talking about it, but the video covers it pretty well.

Hi @Robertguy09 did you get your mini cute CRT set up what isolation transformer did you use? Did you need additional harness?

Yep it is all setup now!

I got this iso transformer:

I wanted to make/buy a harness to get the AC from the existing harness, but couldn't find the connectors. So I ended up getting the AC from the power supply's connectors. Then made a harness with the Wells Gardener's female power connector for the k7000 chassis.

Here is the female connector and pins you need to connect the chassis' power:

Still searching for one in my area, but I found a lead that isn’t that far away

Bumping this back up to see if there is a local option within a day’s drive from NYC area
