The garage after the 3rd (4th?) weekend.
|
TVs and the tabletops with TV mounts installed.
|
The tv (on a table top now) hooked up to Patrick's Rally-X board. The board didn't work when he bought it, we're trying to fix it. So far the connectors, a RAM and a bipolar PROM have been diagnosed as bad.
|
The base with everything mounted on it.
|
Again, the base, but from the other side.
