My Catcher and Aero are waiting on parts so lets start a thread for these wide metal cabinets.
My Colorado was in the shop so I jumped "ol Bessey" and picked up the cab from storage and brought it to my lakehouse along with my "battlebox of tools".. I almost hurt my back loading it with two people. So in order to unload, it would require me to remove the monitor while it was on the back of my truck
The "dirt" was unreal and pitch black around everything..
After reaching in unknown spaces for a few minutes (with gloves on) I found the steel rod which unlatched the top opening. I like the monitor detachments in the frame. It allows me to completely remove the monitor frame after unplugging two receptacles.
After a wipedown of the monitor. I noticed some "Tetris" burn in.
I final look down the cab. These were the cleaner parts. The monitor housing had at least a 1/3 cup of soot requiring me to change out my soap bath a good six times.
The monitor shroud on this cab was huge.. After a generous cleaning I got the tube model and crossed referenced it with tubular in case I didn't like the tetris burn (*spoiler I love it so far)
The shroud and the monitor had an ungoldly amount of toxic dark black soot which soiled my bath in multiple wipes..
When I flipped the cab upside down I discovered a GIANT power switch on the bottom and this weird port that I would love to know its function. The PSU metal was perfectly in tact to my surprise.
I found screws to remove the big "footrest piece" or whatever it was and was able to retrieve the PSU and chassis from the cab
That's all for today. But I anticipate removing the final components to be powder coated in the next posts.
