very nice… where did u get access to tig welder?

@sdetweil I run a local makerspace, so I was able to talk to our metal shop guy and he had one, in total fairness I didn’t do the welds on the frame myself he did them for me, as this was my first attempt at TIG welding.

@bdream Sure so I had some 3/4" (19MM) oak plywood kicking around. I ripped it down on the table saw, I glued that up and put screws in the end and then covered them over with bondo
The screen runs to the edges, but not quite to the top.
I did some rough cutouts on the top for the speakers, and made a VESA mount plate out of sheet steel on the back
Speaker openings were pretty rough, but I planned on covering them.
Here are the 3D printed covers, I didn’t bother making the screws all pretty and hidden since there’s only about a foot between the top of the mirror and the ceiling
Here’s the whole thing painted, if you look in the corners you can see the 3D printed brackets that I’ve used to hold it to the wall.
