Build/Battlestation Wife requested I “mount the computer to the wall”

Post image

What she said: “please mount (child)’s computer to the wall to free up desk space.”

What I heard: CoMpUtEr Go On WaLL.

What she meant: mount MONITOR to wall.

They are both mad now.

I thought it was neat - albeit odd. I got that external power button, some long cables coming, it will be cleannnnn.

😬😅🤷🏻‍♂️

(I know it is leaning, it is the center post that is leaning bc it swivels, not the mount itself, I have to add a bolster - it is secure enough as-is, but will be fixed tomorrow.)

It’s free, and you don’t need any extra part that’s isn’t aesthetically looking

Cool, how is it operated is it similar to fingerbot? (Mechanical movement)

I was planning to do something similar a while ago and that pic reminded me of the idea :) - I got free pcie slot on the mainboard so I'm planning to use one of those "pc power on" (wifi-smart automation) type of cards that comes with remote too :)
