Title: Cocktail LCD bezel help?
Post by: Jefferson on July 24, 2011, 06:41:27 pm
Hey guys,  I've started building a cocktail cabinet out of an arcade depot kit (its gorgeous) and I'm about to order a consolidated last bunch of supplies, whats stopping me is my uncertainty with the monitor bezel.  I've got a 19" Polyview LCD with a nice viewing angle, has anyone used one of these bezels..?

Also, what would I use to cut the outside edges of the bezel to fit?

I've searched around the forums but havent heard of anyone using this product...

If the bezel is flat plastic you could use a flat edge and a router with a trim bit to cut it down to size.  Same setup works will for plexi or lexan.

I made my own out of 1" * 1" rubber 90 degree angle stripping, looks great and is soft on the LCD if you ever dropped the lid
What I meant is, L shaped 1*1 rubber stripping, I think it was meant for some door part or something (from Home Depot)
