Admittedly, I do like the current iMac design a bit. I had a screen lying around, with which I had no idea what I should do with it. So I had the idea to take it apart and do something cool with it. To be precise, it’s a LG Flatron 19-inch widescreen. Looks like this when you buy it:
So I removed the plastic casing, leaving me with the actual monitor unit. I went into a DIY and looked for a frame with at least that size or larger, and found a good one. I took the frame apart, so that I only had the glass. Made some marks on the glass about the size and started cutting. After that, I painted the front plastic shell black, “overwriting” things like the LG logo and the “Flatron” identifier in the top left. Inserting the glass was no problem since it had the correct dimensions.
This is what it looks like now.
Kinda cool eh?
Mounted and ready for prime time. It’s now playing music videos all the time. With the glass in front it suddenly looks far more expensive. =)
