The base is 24" x 25.5" and the front of the panel is about 3 feet from the wall during gameplay...art this distance the tv is the perfect size.

42" cropped to 4:3 = 34.5" screen @ 36" distance - perfect!
BadMouth's recommendation is actually very close to the THX standard for viewing distance, which is coincidentally the same ratio I am trying to stick to :P
We've got some suhhhweet looking pedestals in this thread - you guys have done amazing work, major kudos! :applaud:

Well, damn. Throw some shelves inside that thing and you've built exactly what I'm envisioning. Down to the theme, even. Well done.
:cheers:

Thanks. I can get you the measurements if you would like.

Here is another example of the 46" TV with the bezel art. It is still a bit big for Defender since the original used a 19" monitor, but it is perfect for games that used a 25".
