Abstract
A method of forming aligned apertures in the electrode plates of an electron gun which includes a plurality of electrode plates at least one of which is preapertured and at least another is unapertured. A boring tool, such as an electric-discharge machine, is sized to fit snugly within the aperture in the preapertured electrode plate. The boring tool is inserted through the aperture in the preapertured electrode plate whereby the plate aligns the tool in a position of concentricity. The tool is activated to form a precision concentric aperture in the unapertured electrode plate.
