Need help with monitor

Well I have been working on my arcade and I kind of hit a stand still. I just need to find a way to support a 23 inch computer monitor. Some way that would be safe with out cracking the wood... I will try and get pictures up.

don't arcades generally have them down low with a mirror up top to show you the screen?

i dunno, i guess i thought you were trying to get the monitor to face forward but were having difficulties mounting it that way.

Really I just want it mounted anyway that would keep it up and stable.

I have my 21" sun CRT mounted on scrap wood I used to build the sides (3/4" MDF) and 2x4s screwed directly to the sides of the cabinet.

Could you show me a pic

is about the best pic I have. The bottom of the 2x4s is cut at an angle to fit flush with the horizontal 2x4s at the bottom of the top of the cabinet.
