7"is as big as you can go isn't it?! :/

 

[Midgetclown]

Yea i think 7" is as much as you can fit in there. Not too much room to work with in that spot.

I know this is an old thread but I wanna see the pics lol I've been wanting to.try this out for the first time but can't seem to find a good "how to" about it

Forgot that i moved all the pictures to a different album in my photobucket. I dont have step by step pictures but these should help a little.

My monitor came with a plastic back plate so it made it alot easier to form it. I cut the hole big enough for the back plate to fit.

I glued it in place and just laid some fiberglass on the back of it then put the resin on.

After that hardened i filled in the front with bondo and sanded it all down.

Hopefully this will help you a little bit.
