Building a monitor frame

[iscariot]

Does anyone have any experience building a frame for a monitor?  I've got a cabinet without a monitor in it and need to mount something.  I'm thinking a big VGA or a TV with the case removed.

it should already have some brackets in there to mount a tube.... have a looksie!

if not...the easy way would be to leave the case, and build a shelf in there to set the TV on.

Here is what I did.

Here is my TV mounted


The brackets were kinda offset next to the tube so I had to make extensions for the bracket.  You may need to add a 2x4 to the top and bottom and use wood screws so that you can mount the TV down to something.  I used 3/4" 5-ply plywood.


And then I put a shelf in there to hold the boards


Then I put the bezel on it and the Plexi and viola...


Works Great!
