Well I just recently purchased a Vision Pro 27" monitor, and I was just trying to figure out how I am gonna mount this thing in my cabinet! It's going to be going in an old Dynamo cabinet, I know it will fit. I made sure of that before I bought it :) But I was wondering if anyone had any tips, do's or don't do's, or problems they ran into while mounting large monitors. I am not the worlds greatest carpenter, but I can use power tools ;) I do have 2 different friends who are carpenters by trade who can help, so that should make my life somewhat easier. Thanks for any info.

I made a monitor mounting boards for my two cabs I've made.
Get a sheet of 3/4 inch plywood cut a hole in it for the monitor tube and drill holes in it for the mounting brackets on the monitor.
Bolt the monitor to the board and then mount the board inside your cab.

my D9200 sits on a shelf I installed, that takes most of the weight. Then I bolted it to 2 2x4's, one on top, on on bottom of the front mounting brackets. The 2x4's connect to sides of cab with "L" brackets. very solid.
