Monitor Glass/Bezel Mounting Questions

Pages: << < (2/3) > >>

RayB:

80' will put alot of weight on whatever support is at the bottom (be it a lip, or a screwed on retainer). Keep that in mind. If the glass is laid at a lower angle, more weight gets distributed to the support slats and a less on the bottom lip/support.



Iori:

I must be stating the angle of my glass in a way other than the accepted convention...  I am saying 80 degrees where 90 degrees would be vertical and 0 would be horizontal so my glass will be at something like 5 or 10 degrees by your convention I think.    :)

Iori:

Well I wandered around the hardware store for about an hour today and found something that seems will work for what I am looking to do.  What is it that I found?  those metal strips for where the carpet meets a non carpet flooring.  I didn't get one yet as I want to get my monitor set in place before I grab one of these, but from the looks of it I'll be able to grab one of these, shorten it by a few inches, drill a few holes in it, paint it black and it will be good to go.  :D  I guess I'll just see how this works out...

Scoobie:

I too am looking for a glass retainer.  I couldn't find it on the Happ website, and when I called they said they carry it...but there is no picture or dimensions of it.

Has anyone bought one of these retainers from Happ?  The one I'm looking for is something similar to one used on a NFL Blitz, NBA Showtime or Mortal Kombat cab.

Thanks!

I would really be interested in seeing this too... I didn't even know that there was something like this offered at Happ.  Are the retainers for the cabs you mention a lipped metal edge that the top of the glass fits into or does it work some other way?  Thanks...
