Wouldn't it be easier....
Wouldn't it be easier just to have the glass stay still and only rotate the monitor?
I'm not in a good mood at the moment though your post cheered me up. I'm having challenges coating the glass I thought I had it in the bag on the second go but I waited too long for the primer backing coat (which protects the black paint and provides a surface to stick mounts to) and when I lifted the masking tape the primer coat tore ragged edges. GAH!

GAH!Maybe run a very sharp razor-blade along the edge of the masking tape to cut the paint away from the tape before pulling the tape off?
Finally I switched on the monitor and fed it some blue, all in all it's the look I had in mind, I'm happy with it, it looks slick no?
Looks like it was made by expensive precision manufacturing equipment.

I hope you're there to see it when it all comes together
It really is f-ing unbelievable how much effort you put into this build. The rest of us aren't worhty to call us selves arcade builders
Let's just define a new category for Ond and we'll be able to keep calling ourselves arcade builders.
wait... this is an arcade machine?
