Currently Unthemed LuSiD-style cabinet

<< < (4/5) > >>

Bobulus:
Hinges work great. For the set I have, they can be adjusted in three different axes, but in the 'center' position of each, it just clears if I set the hinge inward exactly the thickness of the door. So scrap wood worked well.

(Excuse the photo quality. I took these with my camera phone)

The door when closed. Not much of a crack. I could probably turn the screws and adjust this more, but I'm waiting for it to 'settle' a bit first.



The door when opened. There's maybe a 3/16" or something gap on the side, when open.



Shot from the inside. I used the guides that came with my hinges to space it out, and it turned out pretty good.




There's no binding, and it doesn't touch the side of the cabinet at any point. I'm pretty happy with it.

Bobulus:
Actually, that's still not very clear. I think the key here is that I'm using the hinge backwards of how you'd expect it to be used, and using a spacer to adjust for that.

Labeling!

Rick:
I think it's the attached 'the right way' vs. 'backwards'...  All of my cabinet doors in the kitchen are routed on the door, and have the adjustment on the wall.  Thanks for all the pics!  (I think I still have a problem - confusing to have to explain, but let's just say the door has to open 'upwards', and there's some trim work in front of it...  ...so really, I think I'm looking for a hinge that will 'drop' the door down and swivel outwards under the lip.  Yeah, confusing.)

 ;D

Donkbaca:
Did you ever figure out how to make it turn on to the VGA input?

Bobulus:
It was actually much, much simpler than I thought. It bases what channel to default when turned on based on what's plugged into the back.

So as long as VGA is the only thing plugged in, it defaults to that.

I was planning on plugging my original NES into the thing, too, instead of running NES emulation, but I can live without that for now.
