Mario Bros in Red !
Level42:
1st: The whole back side, monitor cage still in cab. That wood seems to be in a 45 degr. angle.
2nd: metal strip on bottom side of monitor, left side
3rd: idem, right side
Level42:
1st: OK I removed the three screws on the metal strip and loosened all wires (!!!!!!) Now I can easily shift the entire cage up. Sorry, but I was home alone while doing this, else I would have made some pictures of shifting it out/up.
Here you see the now-empty cab. There's the big wood that supports the cage.
2nd: OK cage on floor, backside
3rd: Left side
4th: Front
Level42:
And the last one....the left side.....look at that stylish woodgrain finish, what were they thinking in Japan ? Even the inside should look nice, or was this scrapwood ?
Look at that dust too, the inside is even worse. It's really really black, very fine dust. It's a miracle the outside of the cab is in such good shape.
All in all, this is quite a nice construction, although I can see it's costly (labor !) and no wonder they changed it later.
I think there many possibilities with this construction. F.I. I could make two frames with different monitors, one horizontal, one vertical and then simply swap monitors (would require an interface though and two "new" TV's).
Or maybe it's possible to make a whole new, rotating construction. It's very possible to rotate the CRT alone I think, but this would be a bit more definite....
