Monitor Mod

Its scary to think of things that you would consume time with if you quit modding G-Dubs.... Thanks for giving that old monitor a new life!

Since you have sprayed it, it looks like it has grown a few inches from the original photo, it now looks like a widescreen.

One of the Bonuses I guess. I must tell Plastikote :)

Halfords spray cans generally arent bad to be honest. but you do get the occasional one thats horrendous =[ Anyway, good job on your monitor, i might do it to one of my older ones before i start using it for benching purposes.

I've actually been plagued by problems recently and have eventually worked out what the problem is. I'm wearing latex gloves and the tip of my finger with the slightly baggy end is causing the paint to collect there and then come off in lttle globules giving me spits of paint onto the job. Finally cracked it today when it happended during the top coat of the Modzart front panel, which now needs to be sanded and re coated as a result.

All that and a full time job, a 40 minute comute, being secretary for a mens club and restoring an old cottage.

and yeah, Mrs Dubs would be quite pleased as i'd get a little bit more done around the house. That said, when I haven't got a project on the go I tend to get under her feet and eventually she suggests I head out to the Garage and start chopping stuff up.

My secret.....No Kids.

No Kids = disposable income and time. Not only that, when i'm old I get to choose my own OAP home.

looks good in black. Why not make the front part white or something?

I should have thought of these things when I was younger, I have two of the little bugers a nagging wife that wants all of my time, not to metion her mother and girlfriend are staying with us now, and I work in the sun all day:[

Kudos G!!!
 
Well all done.

Gotta be the shortest Mod I've ever done. Most of my Mods are measured in ice ages!!!

Masking tape came off real nice, and the screen was fine aside from the fingerprints that were there before.

So here you go guys.

Love to know what you think. Worthwhile???
