Comment on Custom monitor wall mount
rambos@lemm.ee 5 months agoI could be more specific. You are right, it supports VESA, but only if you remove pivot stand (the reason I bought the monitor in first place). This way I can have it wall mounted and still use tilt/pivot/vertical motion. Pivot stand build quality is great

Pivoting (tilting+swivelling) VESA wall mounts are also a thing, so you wouldn’t have needed to choose the display based on its stand
I personally wouldn’t have risked my monitor on being able to design a part that is able to last just to save the few bucks a mount costs. So props to you, I guess.

Im aware all kind of mounts exist, my setup is made from parts I had at home (including monitor ofc). I didnt want to spend 50€ or more on decent mount for 140€ monitor, but I respect that most people would just buy off the shelf product. Just sharing what I think someone might find usefull.
Strength wise, Im not worried at all, but Im clumsy enough that one monitor fell and screen broke while moving last year (RIP)
