100 pound monitor

[jwocky]

My monitor will be a 100 pound crt. I'm looking to just put it on a stand of some sort right next to my current desk. Does anyone know of any stands that support such a weight? Thanks!

I wouldn't get anything except industrial strength steel. Out of curiosity, do you have a link to this beast of a monitor?

my 19" sammy weighs approx 70lbs, so a 21" tube could easily weigh 100lbs

It's the Sony FW900 - 24" CRT (92lbs). So nobody knows of anything at Staples/Office Max I could pick up for this eh? How about just a multimedia cart type thing: http://www.staples.com/Catalog/Browse/Sku.asp?PageType=1&Sku=APOTPW35E

You guys think something like this would work?
Option 1

or

Option2

Thanks.

Option 2 seems pretty decent as those are the ones we use to carry slide and LCD projectors in my workplace. Those are usually built like tanks and will last a lifetime.

Considering that projectors are under 10Lbs.

For that kind of weight I'd look for stands etc under TV's, not only computer monitors. Walmart used to carry them too.

You want one of these.

I can just picture a fly landing on it and the whole thing crashing down. Bump for more ideas this one is a toughy. I am thinking it would be a good idea to stay away from anything wall mounted.

hahahahahah why not just make something out of bailing wire and duct tape, maybe alittle cardboard. ahahahahah

just kidding

I'll probably just end up getting something like this. I was told by one of its retailers that it should support the monitor. They better be right.
