Replacement tubes are only about $15 but why spend that when I can just print them!

      That was my first thought as well. I was going to be incredibly impressed if OP managed to 3D print a vacuum tube.

      That or get a laugh at a 3D printed dummy vacuum tube in a $1K audiophile amp.

      I read that in an Australian accent.

      Though point of technically. It’s a tube. And it attaches to a vacuum.

        See, and I went with Patrick. Oh pop culture. Unless, of course, you are Australian. Then, my warmest regards!

          My accent is Californian by way of Minnesota.

          Yes, I get weird looks when I ask for a sodah instead of pop.

        But he did not call it “a tube that attaches to a vacuum.”

          too many words, and I’m not cool enough to just call it a “tubeythingthatattchestoavacuum.”

          So, Vacuum Tube makes sense.
