Need advice on mounting monitor
« on: November 23, 2003, 04:42:54 pm »
So my Princeton Graphics 1400 is decased, and I'm ready to mount it to a piece of plywood.  What should I use to mount it with?  I'm thinking bolts, but for the large holes in the corners, what kind?

How was it connected to the front of the plastic enclosure?  I'm guessing it was mounted with screws thru the four smaller side brackets.  If so, screws thru the same holes into the plywood should be adequate.

You are correct - screws.

I'm thinking rounded bolts, small ones.

I was more concerned with the large holes in the corners.  Since the shroud and the bracket around the tube are separate, this is to stabilize the whole unit.
