That way it would come out at the proper angle and be the proper distance away from the screen. |

i'm thinking on casters so i can move it completely away, or at least on some of those plastic carpet slider things. and you joke about the cat, but i'm telling you, you don't want to mess with Joey. he may be neutered and has no front claws, but he sure knows how to use those rear claws, and he isn't afraid to bite. He is usually nice to me, but my kids might tell you a different story. here are a few pics i took of the cabinet today..sorry they kinda suck, i took them with my phone. |

that's some ugly CP. I'd use the pedestal, but with a standard TV on the wall. Might even use it in your normal living room. This way you'd save some room, and wouldn't have to fiddle with the fitting of your TV in the cab. Just a tought. However, with that setup, you kind of loose this marquee... but IMHO it looks alien to the cab design. |

well, it is going in my family room, i dont have a regular TV in that room, only a 102" projection screen. if i do set it up with a regular TV on the wall, i'd have to buy a new one. we have a 42" LCD in the living room, but i'd never get to use it because my wife is constantly watching stupid crap on tv. as for the marquee, i'm tempted to just remove that box entirely...and you are right, the control panel is UGLY |
| Marsupial:
well, a 102" arcade cabinet ain't a bad idea... :dizzy: :applaud: :notworthy: >:D the pedestal doesn't need to be in the way of the projector. :burgerking: :dunno :laugh2: |
