4 UAII modifications possible??

[Ldsfunaz]

I originally thought i was gonna go LuSiD but now I'm leaning towards UAII

i have 4 things i want to do, please let me know if they are possible, how i would do it, and if you agree with my choice.  Anyhelp is very appreciated.

1) adding hinges to the front bottom of the cabinet to access computer.  I don't think i want to go through the back every single time something goes wrong so I think this idea would be good for me.

2) Changing the monitor angle to 35 deg.  I think its only at 11 degrees to start.
Is it as simple as plasing the mopniter shelf at 35 degrees?

3) Angle the Cabinate sides where the Control Panel Box sits so i don't have to make angle cuts to create an angles CP box.  I think this is simple as well.

4) make circular cutouts around the monitor for better viewing for 3 and 4 players.
  I think the TV/monitor sits back a little bit with the UAII so i was hoping this would be possible.  would a bezel still work OK.

thanks alot guys, if you have an answer for anyone of these it would be great...

I have almost the entire front on a piano hinge for access.  Works great. The only thing you will notice is that you need to leave some space on the hinge side since the front is recessed 3/4 inch.  I also beveled the top so it matched the contour of the angle.  So basically what you see is a 3/4 reveal on all sides of the front panel.

hey thanks a lot.

1.accessing the computer is not really a big deal i guess.

Regarding number #3.

I angled the cabinet support itself rather than the CP box to achieve an angle. It's not a UAII style but the principal is the same and it seems to work OK.
