consernes about inconsistent bezel making a cabinet

[richietw]

Fellow people,

 

I'm gonna make a cabinet, but before I'm gonna make any measurements I want to know how people build their cabinet with a inconsistent monitor bezel.

If you hold a monitor on landscape, you will have the BOTTOM BEZEL being thicker than the TOP BEZEL.

 

In a cabinet that will be LEFT and RIGHT side of the screen ofcourse.

 

What to do so that you don't see that bezel / my screen will be in the middle?

 

TOP bezel (RIGHT on cabinet): 0,8 CM

BOTTOM bezel (LEFT on cabinet): 2,0 CM

Screensize: 31,5'

I had the same issue during the build.  My solution was to 3D print a matching bezel.  Sacrifice a few lines of pixels from the top of the screen.  During software (popper) setup, adjust the screen height to compensate for the new bezel. Printed in 3 pieces with align pins, assembled with adhesive, painted in a flat black and stuck to the top of the screen with double-sided mobile phone screen tape.

 

My standard size screen went to 1900 X 1080 instead of 1920 X 1080.  Standard cab tables look fine.  From what I remember,Y axis was adjusted by 20 pixels, same as the reduced 1920 to 1080 axis.

 

First image is of the real bezel, the second image is obviously from the 3D print.  I have blades routed out to cover the edges of the bezels.

 

The build was more of a find the solution to the problems encountered on the path.
