I took a few pic's that I hope will answer a few questions for the newbee's on dismantling a monitor. Hope this helps someone; Just make sure it has not been plugged in for awhile, don't want anyone getting shocked! And please do not break the tube.
Cover unscrewed and ready to remove.
Just removed the cover, ready to unplug silver box on top. Silver box has a small circuit board inside. (can usually cut open the box to remove the low grade board) Box is tin.
Removed the plug-in box on neck of tube(see socket pins)
Circuit board unplugged and removed from the monitor, black transformer top right, surrounded by alum heat sink. Two smaller alum. heat sinks in the middle. (only things of value on this low grade board) If IC chip is big enough then I will use a chisel and pop it off, (lower left). Just a couple of copper bearing items (coils-chokes) on this board to be removed.
Close up of the yoke and degaussing cable around the tube. Small silver braid wire is actually copper braid, and degaussing cable is larger black cable that goes around the tube. Yoke still attached. (degaussing cable is usually copper or alum. wire wrapped in black tape)
