fitting a 27' screen into my cabinet
*ShAgGy*:
G'day all
my first post so excuse my n00bism,
ive got a 27' cabinet and was nice enuf to break the tube on my 25' monitor
ive since found here in Aus its hard to find a 25' screen ANYWHERE!!! so i grabbed a 68cm (27' if im right probably not) screen and am trying to mount it up
problem is its so freakin heavy it broke the not only the frame i had (some dodgy chipwood crap from the idiots i brought it off ) but also moved the 2 wooden side bits that the frame screwed onto by the sheer weight as u can probably tell my question is
how the hell would i be able to fit it on if @ all? is the tube to heavy? any help is going to be greatly apreciated!!!
thanks

First of all, will it fit physically?
*ShAgGy*:
yeah i fits fine
but im going to have to make 4 brackets or something
but im fresh outta ideas
its shittin me really
Ash...Housewares:
Do you have any pictures of this unfortunate massacre? It sounds like the monitor housing/shelf/whatever has broken inside the arcade cab, but the monitor itself is still okay, right? You still have the metal brackets intact on the sides of the monitor?
I do apologize if I have this entirely wrong.

i'll try to get some pics done
the monitor has all 4 brackets intac(THANKGOD!! lol)
im thinking i mite make some houseing 4 the monitor (tv houseing like) make a shelf and reinforce the housing on to the sides of the machine, see a quick history of the machine is (Well when i brought it i had to find all this out!)
but it was orginally a lethal enforcers cabinet with the mirror reflection
then it was modded to have a control panel on (which is deadset crap(im on the look out for a good one)) and has some very shoddy workmanship inside the cabinet since ive had it ive tryed like crazy to get it to a respectable machine, ive done well so far but i now need the monitor in
soon as that happens i can finish him off almost
i'll post --BINGO! Either that, or I was attempting to say "before" but it was too many letters to type-- and afters so i can get some opions but yeah thats my story and im stickin to it!! :) lol
so in answer yeah the brackts are still there :)
