RE: 833a Sockets: where to buy?

It will take a little less than 20 years to make 833 plate and grid caps
using
brass rod readily available from McMaster-Carr. A springy gauge of brass
strip
makes an excellent support for the filament terminals. Two strips per
pin
make a neater support than trying to bend a single a strip to shape
around the pins.  8-32 brass screws hold the strips tightly and neatly
around the pins. Bend the mounting tabs outward and screw them into
a piece of Delrin bar, drilled and tapped for the 8-32 screws.

Let's keep the Tesla list free of cutesy political commentary.
