    Right here is a good reason we tell our newer members to do some reading back thru the older posts, all of your questions so far could have been answered by you.

    #1- never a good idea to "sneak" leaded glass into the local scrapyard, at my yard it would get me banned from there.
    #2- a few people have posted already about the cooling mineral oil behind the tubes.
    #3- if you clean those metal boxes off the green board you will upgrade it to a mid-grade at around 1.50-2.50 a lb. The brown board is .10-.20 a lb. and you can clean the goodies off.
    #4- The coils you are unwinding is varnished wire, anything wound is varnished or it would short out.
    #5- Next pic I think your looking at the 2 smaller transformers, those go in my motor bucket, but some yards buy them separately.
    #6- Last pic. that is a flyback or hi voltage transformer and the copper is sealed inside, my yard buys them but your milage may vary.

    here is part of the insides.
