I have a few of those.
My last project was a sweep tube amp. Used the compactron 6JM6 or you can use the 6JN6 if you don't want plate caps. I basically ripped off David Berning's screen drive, but put a massive power supply of my own design in it. I think David would have used a bigger supply if he only built one too. The outputs idle at ~3ma, so you can actually lay your finger on the side of the output tubes. That's why the big power supply ( about 3000uf at 500v), it has to have the electrons very handy to go from zero to 60 in a nano second. The 6LR6 seems interesting. http://www.duncanamps.com/tdsl/show.php?des=6LR6

You'd probably want regulated screens though, which is no big deal if you don't mind a little sand.
