Bathroom mirror mounting strips. $4.88 for 4 feet. Cut and painted with Rustoleum hammered black. I needed to have the entire monitor mount removable in one shot, so I had to mount the glass to the bezel... I'll be using 3/16" Solar Gray plexi from Tap Plastics so that I can drill through it (I'm installing my admin panel in the bezel/glass). AJ |

It all depends on how much time you want to spend. |

Yeah, I cracked mine and turned into angry dad. Then I read a thread on here describing these. I ended up using the angle to mount the LCD on the back of the bezel... It was a win-win. ha.

I'm working on a cab design that doesn't have 90 degrees on the marquee. I really like the aluminum retains, so to get around those pesky obtuse angles, I'm planning to cut down some down on my table saw. And here's a better view to help illustrate... I was intimidated the first time I cut aluminum on my saw... but it's really pretty easy as long as you secure your work well. :cheers: NOTE: If you get larger angle, then you only have to make one cut for the angle... not two like I've shown. |

I used a similar item but I had to order from a place online to get a bigger piece. 1/2" was not going to cut it, I got 1" or 1.25". Plus I could get them in black. These were vinyl corner guards which can be bent if you heat them, but they will shrink a bit when they cool so cut the length after bending if you do that! :D |
