I've made a few posts here, and some of you can probably tell I'm in the "monitor selection" phase of my cab project.
Here's the deal: -
I have an empty jamma cab, that used to house Flying Shark (Taito). It had a vertically mounted monitor in it, but the cab isn't very wide (508mm inside width). This can just about get a 20" monitor in it.
However, I'd like to put a rotating monitor in it, but unless I get a tiny monitor, whose diagonal measurement is less than the inner width of my cab, I don't think I can do it.
So I'm toying with the idea of getting a 21" polo star from hantarex, then cutting holes in the sides of my cab large enough to allow the monitor to rotate. I'm thinking I would mount the monitor on a circular board (at front and back) and rotate on a series of wheels inside the cab. With this "circle" overlapping the width of the cab (coming out the holes i'd cut in the sides) I guess I could then easily rotate the monitor by hand.
Anyone done this, or something similar? Or can anyone give me advice (or tell me the idea is crap)

Thanks in advance!
