Front TV 40" LXi

Greg,

I took the easy way out. I took the box that the Sony was mounted in, added a felt covered surround at the top and bottom, and bolted a swivel TV mount to the side. This way the new monitor, a 24" Samsung SyncMaster 2441, can be pulled out away from the cabinetry and tilted any direction for viewing. I used a couple of Southco grabber catch latches to secure the monitor at the top and the bottom. There's a notch at the top and bottom to assist in pullling the monitor out. Like Chuck I cover the whole thing with the original plexiglass. I'm not a finish carpenter so the idea of messing with my maple cabinetry was out of the question, plus I like to keep things original or reversible if possible; although, it's not likely anyone's going to reinstall that Sony boat anchor! I'm afraid I'm not much help either! lol


The cord is my temporary SeriusXM antenna.

Chuck: or, find a sheet of plexiglass that's not smoked so heavily??? Here's Chuck's TV mod thread.
