BUILD A ONE INCH SCOPE

What could be more fun than building a miniature oscilloscope? Not one with an LCD screen, but a scope with a real live cathode ray tube just one inch in diameter. All the parts — including two 6AU6 vacuum tubes — will be housed in a 5” x 7” x 2” box.
My inspiration came from the cover of a 1960 issue (Figure 1) of Popular Electronics.

USED TO LAUNCH THE DIGITAL REVOLUTION, TWICE: This oscilloscope was used to design Pong, the birth of the video game industry, and the Apple II, the first personal computer with hi-res color graphics. The present oscilloscope is a remarkable artifact, having played a critical role in launching two of the most consequential products in the history of the digital revolution.
