What is the best way to mount the screen into a cabinet? More specific I'm trying to mount a LCD. The current LCD that I have didn't come with holes in the back to mount to anything. There are 4 screws but that is to hold the plastic casing to the screen. I will probably remove those 4 and try to find longer screws to mount the LCD to a board that will be screwed into the side panels. Or I may look for a wall mount and use that to mount the screen in the cabinet. Here are other options I have considered. 1. Just leave the LCD on the stand and work with whatever angle I can get from the original stand. 2. As noted above look for longer screws and mount it to the board. 3. Get a wall mount and mount to the LCD and the board. 4. Build a brace to hold it up. Still trying to figure this out before building or creating the bezel. |

Can you provide a picture of the back of the LCD? I have never known one not to come without the screw holes for a VESA mount. |

I agree. It sounds odd that there is no place to mount screws. I know on most LCD monitors and televisions there are screw holes of some sort. I know on mine monitor shown here I was able to put a piece of 1/4" mdf inside of where the stand was and mount that to a board and then mount said board to my weecade and screw it in that way. If I have time tonight I will disassemble my weecade to show you what you mean. I also agree with Bob. Pictures would be great to continue the brainstorming. |

Sometimes the vesa mounts are hidden by a removable plastic cover. |
