i feel silly posting this here as it's certainly not highly technical - i just figure the folks who visit here are more likely to give me an answer quickly!
I am going to build a custom triple screen monitor stand, but am currently concerned about alignment. The red blocks represent each monitor, the pink represents the metal bar, which will be angled at 45 degrees for the side monitors.
I've got to decide, based on my monitors bezel length, the size of the middle part of the metal before i angle it. Based on the measurement between the front of the screen to the from of the metal bar (shown with a green line), and knowing the length of the monitor (other green line), there must be an equation for figuring out how wide that back bit of metal should be, or at least the extra needed (as shown by the arrow).
I don't want to judge this visually while i build it, i want to know in advance. any help?
