Title: Please post pictures of your cabaret/cabrio cabinet
Post by: jcroach on January 12, 2005, 11:04:18 am

Hey.  Newbie here.

I'm trying to design a cabinet that will fit in my small house.  I'd like to even try to make it multi-functional to also use it as a TV and DVD player and jukebox.  I was thinking about a cabaret/cabrio type design with an upright screen, instead of a more angled screen like a Pac-Man or Ms. Pac-Man cabaret.

Has anyone built a cabinet like this?  would you please post some picture of your cabinet for inspiration?  Also, please let me know what size monitor or TV you used.

Thanks!

What's a cabrio type design? A cab without the top?

BTW a cab footprint is usually as big as the monitor. If you want it smaller you'll have to use a smaller monitor (I'm using an LCD screen for that purpose)
