does anyone have a good site with a visual walkthrough of how to discharge a CRT monitor, and any information about taking one apart? ii'm planning on making one of those CRT > fish tank mods but i dont wanna, you know, DIE. i've read you can just take a wire with two alligator clips on the end, and attach one to the chassis (or ground lugnut or w/e) and the other to a screwdriver (while wearing gloves and everything) and discharge that way. is this safe? will it get all the charge out? also, how is it that the charge goes away completely if the charge just goes to the chassis? do you plug in the monitor for it to be completely grounded?
also, what would happen if you just dunked it in water? i mean, i dont need the actual tube or anything, just the case, so i dont mind if the boards inside get fried. just donno if the damn thing will explode on me or anything.
