My 29inch CRT standup cabinet

Zebidee:

Nice kerfing. Curves are much sexier than angles  8)

Wow what a beast of a cabinet!  29” monitor is insane.  Even 3:4 games are going to look great.  The ServoStik is a great choice - I have a few of them and really like them.  I also think your cabinet is wide enough to not hang the CP over the sides.

Keep going!

DaOld Man:

Very good job! I too like the 29" CRT, but that box is going to be heavy (sure you already thought of that).
I like the way you bent that MDF. I must try that now, just hope mine turns out half as nice.


Zebidee:

Do you intend to fill the kerfing gaps with glue?

GIRFT1:

Thanks for all the encouragement. Yep kerfing is easier than i thought - especially with a sharp new saw blade and a few trial runs. I wasn't planning on glueing the kerf - in fact i have changed my mind about glueing any of the woodwork as im worried the CRT may blow a capacitor at some point and if everything was glued up it would be impossible to remove the screen or chassis without destroying the machine.

Its good to hear a positive review for the servo stik - i think im shortly going to order one and have a play.

And yes the box is reassuringly heavy - so glad it has wheels at the back.
