How hard is it to rotate a monitor in a 29" candy cabinet? How do you do it?
Thanks

I have the super neo candy. It takes two people to do it, because of the angle that pulling the monitor out of the cab requires. You just unscrew some screws from the front and the back. Plus you have to redo the wiring for the monitor. I figured it out without any help, but I still needed the assistance with the monitor lifting. It's not hard to do at all.

In my cab, it has mounting holes in the wood for vertical or horizontal mount, just unscrew the bolts, get two people (I actually did it once by myself, no one was around to help) and flip it around, screw it back in. I do it quite a lot for shooters, theres nothing to re-wire. When I flip it though I uhsually leave it like that for a few weeks.

I actually had the link to a website where this guy built his own cab from scratch with a rotating monitor mechanism.I believe that the cab housed a 25" monitor and he lived in Brazil.
Just build a Super Gun type device,purchase an RGB monitor and build a wooden housing around it.
