I've got an old computer minus the monitor that I'd like to put in my shop. I'm thinking that this will be VERY helpful when going from a sketchup drawing to the real thing. Or maybe I could set up a webcam in my shop to show all of my progress live for those of you who think paint drying and grass growing moves at breakneck speed...

Thanks Travis!

Name: Chris Hoffman City: Garner State: NC County: Wake Join Date: Oct 2005 Age: 32 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 2.64 over 180 days | WOW! I was joking, but I guess bigger is better when it comes to CAD type stuff! You rock Travis! Send me a PM when you know for sure.
I'm thinking of making like a Kiosk type-thing that hangs on the wall - nothing fancy. Just something to hold the CPU, monitor and a roll out shelf for the keyboard and mouse using some drawer slides that I've got. I don't want to give up any of my work surfaces to hold it and I want to keep the monitor and keyboard/mouse at a comfortable level for standing.

I use two monitors for CAD work and that really is nice - keep the picture on one and move all the tools to the other. Two 17's is good without taking up too much desk top. I have a 17" spare if travis can't do the 21"

That sounds like a great setup for autocad, but fortunately for my skill levels, sketchup isn't quite that sophistocated.
