      Now i’ve removed the monitor casing from the Screen has anyone thought of any good uses for this?

      Seems a shame to throw it out?!

              Put some class in it and make a very shallow aquarium. ;)

                I now have a suggestion by my son (7) who whats to turn it into a Lego family potrait frame.

                Cover the back in coloured card or paper then mount a base plate and buy some custom lego figures that look like us!

                Sold!

                  Tell your son that’s an excellent idea!

                    You could also add a Lego backplate in the monitor. This way you can add the portrait to the plate:
