While working on this, i worried about the viewing angle and if this would be ergonomic and economic at all.
But the result blasts away every second thought.
There ar many advantages of having a screen in your table.
And because the screen and the table are even, you still can use your desk in a regular way.
Or also use it as a light box for photo slide, to copy digital images by hand, or just as a animated glowing desk pad.

(to manage two or more desktops in Windows, i recommend the software ULTRAMON. You can set different Wallpapers and screensavers, arange programs permanently to a display and do much more)

Now can anyone sponsor me with a touchscreen display?

I really like this! This might sound dumb though, but When you cut the hole out of the table, how did you do it so nicely? whats your secret.

when you are cutting the hole, cut it around 1 cm (0.5" in) smaller, and then sand all the edges till you are satisfied with the size and the look of the hole!
