    Haha that would be cool, I'll have to look into that.

    So I found a screen shot of the video display cluster on the Galactica's bridge:


    That got me itchin to see what these little screens can do. So I hooked up my eVGA Geforce 6200 pci card to make
    sure i could get a signal out to the lcd's. Here's a test shot:


    I will be making up a fully animated graphic sequence that will mimick the actual effects on the show.
    Should come out looking pretty accurate.

    Thanks floriske.nl and everyone!

    HOLY CRAP AN UPDATE!!
    It's been over a week since I've been able to get any significant work done on this thing. What with halloween and kid stuff, and waiting on parts, there hasn't really been anything to post about.

    But tonight I got the three 2.5" LCD's mounted on the case, along with their controller boards.
    To hold the controllers, I made this 3-tiered styrene base that will mount behind the screens.
    This is so the power and composite cables will clear the board next to it.


    Here they are mounted to the base.




    After doing a test fit on the front panel, I had to make a little adjustment to the third tier so it would fit.
    I drilled and tapped holes in the screen's mounting base, then drilled through the controller base
    and the front panel frame and screwed it all together from the back.


    with the controllers in place...


    ... and with the front panel back on the case, and LCD screens in.




    View from the inside.




    I will make some top caps to cover up the opening, and the gold ribbon cable. The white ribbon cable
    will be disguised as conduit or something more appropriate.

    I hope to get the two dummy screens made up this weekend, and then maybe I can start work on the lower BSG insignia.
