This is going really well. That mesh goes really well with the mod, perfect contrast. That monitor should look fantastic when you're done with it.

Update 31 – The screen part 1 @ Monday the 9th July 2007.
Intro
I’m still waiting for my package with glowwire, coming all the way from usa. ;) I’m started on the screen. Thanks to bass for the sketch, for you who haven’t seen it, here it is, the ting I’m working threw:
But lets start the real update.
The funny part
But first something funny :D I want to show you the funniest thing I’ve ever done. Try to look at the rat, I’ve added two gear wheels, which make the wheel go the opposite way than the wheel. It’s really hard to run on it. But I also added pedals and a wheel from a smaller bike to make it even funnier. Hehe some funny hours I had there. Lets go seriously!
Here’s the screen we’ll work with, a 17” dell widescreen.
Without the border.
From behind, I’m going to use the small pipes sticking up, when I attack the whole thing together.
Then I cut out two slices of 3mm alu.
In my bender I did some 90degreeds corners. But kids, watch out this machine! It has a pressure at 60 tons! Maaan that’s a lot.
Done.
I’ll place them on the screen like this.
The when they are cut out, fit’s perfect.
Then I cut some more 3mm alu out, those will be used as angles and hold the hole thing together.
Drawn and ready for holes.
Like this :P
Bended and ready to use!
Here’s all the parts.
The last thing that’s left on those is some holes to hold the angels.
The screen from behind with the angels in place.
And the last thing in this update: the back plate. It’ll hold the all in place.
Damn, that’s nice. Next step is to connect the plate with the rest, and make the foot for the screen.
Next update will hopefully be in the end of the week, if I get my glowwire!
Cya guys :)
damn straight that is nice.... i really like this one a lot
This really is some amazing work you are doing and it has also given me some ideas for my own case mods. I'll be watching this one with interest, that's for sure.
Have a +rep for the brilliant work.
Wow, great metal work! + rep
