PILOT 1022: Is there any chance of a photo from say 45* offside to left or right to see the offset you designed for the display? That display is AWESOME ! :thumbup:

Newtooth, I dont have a side photo of the display, but Thats a wall mount so the back board is flush to the wall, the duck plate is at a 30 degree angle to the back plate. I have a 8 inch arm 2x2 made of oak and bolted to the back plate and the arm has a 30 degree cut , with the display bolted to it. The rocks cover the bolt head. The wall plate hides the bolt head from the back. The back oval is the smaller of the two 16x22 and the display oval is 18x24, I made two display ovals same size the top oval is only 1/2in. thick with a center cut out and glued together to make a recess for the pond and rocks. The back curve of the duck plate has a 1.5 inch clearance to the face of the wall plate.
Hopes this helps. :)
