I would like to build a VFO for a CW transmitter using any type of
vacuum tube. Can someone help with a schematic? Thank you.

The library is your FRIEND. Go dig out old editions of the "ARRL Handbook".

Fred -
You can also look at proven designs and schematics
Drift is an issue with tube based VFO - and regulated power supplies
are recommended.
Many schematics and manuals are available at BAMA
Such as the Johnson Viking VFO-122
http://bama.sbc.edu/
Here is another web site for schematics

they are so easy to follow - from the time when 10kc/s drift per hour
wasn't really much ....
