Room Upgrades

[Otana]

For some time now I have wanted to change the way I had my computer room setup.

My idea consisted of building a small wooden frame that would sit on my desk, onto which I would hang six LCD monitors on articulated arm wall mounts and a cabnet for the computer towers:


So this is how it turned out.




More pictures of the construction can be found at my blog.

nice,looks good. I just mounted my monitors, and seriously thought about taking your approach i.e. wood, screws and elbow grease. I like the way yours turned out. Bet ya saved some cash too!

What do you do to dissipate the heat created? Props on the woodwork, I respect someone who can do that

Thank you, it's still winter here in Oz, so heats not a problem atm, but this room does have an airconditioner for when it get warmer, also notice that above the window and tower cabnet is a thermometer so I can monitor ambient temperature.

You my friend have all the sypmtoms of being a techno geek. The IPhone, Media Center remote, G15, N52 and 6 screens running matrix.

I fancy myself an amateur woodworker myself. We would get along splendidly with the exception of the Iphone I loathe that device ;)

HAHA, you got me! I'd just finished putting it together so all my usual junk hadnt yet made it back in yet. So yeah it was a "Get a Pic before I mess this up" moment
Heres an honest shot, taken five mins ago.
