Hey,
Yes i did see that, thanks for bringing it up but if i had to do it that way i would leave it alone, as much as i am modifying the cabinet i still want to have an arcade feel and that would kill it for me.
But other news work has begun muahahaha!
So here is my design. the sketch is horrible but i thought i would share it anyways!
The Idea is the monitor will be sandwiched between Wood mount 1 & 2.
Mount 1 will have be routed from the back as the monitor will be screwed to it backwards as it can not go the other way as i am restricted but size.
Then it will be drilled into mount 2 creating the sandwich effect that will hold the monitor in place.
Mount 1 will have a diameter of the outside of the RIM
Mount 2 will have the diameter of the inside of the RIM.
When mount 1 & 2 are secured together it will be able to slot perfectly inside the rim.
It will be held into place using tekscrews through the spoke holes.
This will then fit inside the existing cavity by routing out a small amount of the internal surround 3mm on each edge.
The whole thing will be held into place by 4 Rollerblade wheels that fit perfectly inside the rim and offer a fluid movement.
All that aside let the work begin, i wont be able to go any further till the following week as its mothers day this weekend and need to do something special for the wife.
All i did this weekend was measure plan measure plan made sure it all was going to fit, once all that was over it was time to cut a perfect circle.....
Yeah right i am no wood worker this calls for some cheating!!!!
I decided i would make myself a router jig, was simple enough just get some wood cut it to size route it out so i could get the required depth then drill some holes to keep it steady and the required size. This will allow me to have my perfect circles !!!
