Play anything from NES to Xbox with the Skittlespider A.T.S aka "The Contraption"

Step 10 TV Time

The last part was the TV. I had to cut the front off of the stand so that it would fit inside the monitor case. (Just be careful, because now your TV won't stand up on its own again.) After that, it fit into the case nicely. All I had to do was plug the video cords into the back and I was done! Or so I thought...

I couldn't seem to get the front panel of the case to stay on, so I bought some latches that I could easily latch and unlatch as needed. They are originally meant for use on windows, but they work nicely for my purpose. I just wish they were not as noticeable.

After getting the front panel secured, I noticed that for some reason, the bottom metal plate with the Xbox main board on it was loose. So I put some cable ties to hold it in place.

I also had forgotten to make a hole for the remote sensor, so I had to take the front panel off and drill one last hole. After that, I plugged it in and gave it a test drive. All the systems are still up and running after it is all together, so that makes me happy.

I was unfortunately not able to keep the swivel mechanism, because the weight is not distributed correctly anymore. When I put it on the old monitor stand it just leaned backwards. I may try and add some weight to the front sometime to fix this issue.
