Tearing Down an Old Monitor to Make It Transparent

Twitter really isn't the right media for this kind of thing!

There is a reason such a thing is not being sold commercially. It will look like ass, or rather like an ordinary glass window.

> I may have a few screws loose, but I'm not dumb enough to fuck with exposed wall power with metal tools in my hand

"Respect" is fine and rational. This kind of attitude is unreasonable fear.

I mean, like any respectable home renovator it’s happened to me too and I’m here to talk about it but that’s a long way from saying more people should experience it.

Old LCD monitors with high voltage backlights would like a word with you. I have no idea what this monitor was using but before white LEDs were good there were some serious voltages for whatever lighting tech some of those panels came with.
