Hope all have enjoyed a nice Christmas. Here in Ontario Canada a ice storm took out power lines and trees and made a nice mess of the roads and snow. We were lucky here and power is back on and only had a short outage. Some areas have been out of power for a week and a few are still waiting for repairs to get power restored. Certainly would make for a "special" Christmas for those folks.

Now, I am looking to make a new computer cabinet or ?? for the cnc. I am looking for suggestions or ideas of what other botters have built or made up. We all have something to place the computer on so hoping to get some cool pics of what you guys...or gals have created.
I also am doing research on building a air powered cabinet door clamp so if anybody has ideas there too would be great.

Hope all have a very Merry New Year.

I have a 37" TV/Monitor & computer mounted on a swivel & CPU on a shelf on the wall. I use a HF roll around tool cart to hold my Logitech blue tooth wireless kb & mouse. I can roll it around anywhere & work along the length of the table no problem. Since the kb is wireless you can take it with you when you C2 etc - which is very nice.

Hey Glen,

Here's a couple I did way back around '02 - '04. One is mine and one was for a school. The large automotive filter plugged up quickly so I switched to a duel high quality furnace filter (like the back of the school one). That worked better and was easier to clean out. The fan sucked through the filter, pressurizing the lower portion of the cabinet. Keeps the dust out of things nicely.
