Blurb

This is an IBM Thinkpad 600 that is converted into a rotating digital picture frame. I removed the CD-ROM drive and battery to make it lighter, and then I took apart the screen and mounted it on the back of the laptop. Considering a custom framing store is framing the laptop for me, this project is quite easy. If you have an old laptop lying around that isn't being used, I recommend you convert it into a picture frame!

Here's what I used:

  • Small screwdriver
  • Electrical tape
  • Jig saw
  • Glue gun
  • Compressed Air

The screws are concealed underneath black stickers

The LCD screen is exposed

Just looking underneath the keyboard

I wanted to remove as much as possible

The LCD screen detached and working great

The hinges appeared tough to remove

Look for a hidden screw in the base of the laptop

I cut the plastic frame so I could still use the contrast slider

29 screws to be able to open the LCD screen and keyboard
