Hi. I just post thread about my broken Macintosh SE... Because of the working-well monitor, I want to try if the CRT can be a monitor that can be used to be AV monitor or something else? Just CRT is the hardest I think. Others can be done easily. I found the schematic and took photo of the yoke board (or socket board??). I want to ask if there're any open source program on GitHub or other website? Are there any like Gerber file or 3D print file??
Can Macintosh SE's CRT be monitor?

I don't recommend you to do this. If you dismantle this old device, it will be one less, and it will not work well as a modern monitor, and there is dangerous high voltage. If you can't repair it, it is recommended to sell it to someone who can. If you want to experience the appearance of a Macintosh monitor, it is best to 3D print the shell, which can be equipped with a modern LCD or OLED display.
If you insist on modifying it, you can buy an old 9-inch black and white TV with a CVBS interface, disassemble the internal circuit board, and after some not-so-complicated modifications, it can be used to drive the Mac's CRT
