General information about CRT tubes
Some explanations about the functioning of a CRT:

General diagram
The most popular schematic, from Elextronixandmore, using a Hammond transformer. A kit can be bought at Catahoula Technologies. The schematic and the BOM are here.
Another one solid-state scope from Electronixandmore, without isolation. The voltages are the following:
HV 350V Anode Cap X1/X2/Y1/Y2 280V Deflection plates A2 270V Anode 2 A1 -310V Anode 1 K -665V Cathode G1 -675V Control Grid
Those values are fine for a 3BP1 tube.
The tubes
5LO38I russian tube
I have bought a russian 5LO38I tube on ebay.
The tube is delivered with a russian notice. Hopefully, someone has provided a german translation translation:
This gives:
- Filament voltage: 6.3V, 600mA +/- 10% (5.7 to 6.9V)
- Anode voltage: 1000V (500V to 1100V)
- Deflection:
- On X: 0.09 to 0.14 mm/V
- On Y: 0.11 to 0.16 mm/V
- Focus voltage : 138V to 300V (<550V)
- Cathode voltage: (-125V to 0V)
- G1 voltage: -30V to 90V (-125V to 0V)
- Voltage between "ablenkplatten" and anode: (-660V to 660V)
You can find several applications of the 5LO38I:

Several schematics to generate the high-voltage power supplies:
Chinese 8SJ31J tube
See Aliexpress (8SJ31 from GuangYi store (Aliexpress).
The datasheet can be found here : http://www.ges.cz/sheets/8/8sj31jv2.pdf
My setup
For the generation of the high voltages, I'll use a 220V/220x2+6.3Vx2 ransformer (bought on AliExpress):
I'll use a Greinacher voltage doubler to generate the -600V. The +220V voltage will be obtained by half-rectifying the transformer's secondary output.
The Greinacher circuit:
