Digital Picture Frame

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
