I usually don't post my projects, but I thought I would with this one. I picked up this Robotron empty cab for $50 today. It is pretty solid with all the back doors. My initial thoughts is to restore as much as possible and Mame it. I want to put a rotating LCD monitor in it and stencil the sides back to origial Robotron artwork. So does anyone have any links to stencils or to a motorized rotating monitor set-up? I will post work pics, but it will be slow. I want to take my time on this one...
Thanks,
Southpaw
What about a Robotron 64 theme???

Rotating monitors? Motors? Absolutely. Impossible! You just can't do that. Never!
...?

I thought I saw a project where the montor rotates with a motor, hits a relay and stops. I would think this would be easier now with lighter LCD screens. I currently have a rotating CRT screen than you have do by hand. I was thinking that I could use something like a lazy susan type setup with a motored wheel to move the LCD. Or better yet.....Read all of your other posts!!!!
