We 're thinking of making up some pedestals to fit the 10 " EZ-Touch screens and I'm curious if anyone would be interested in buying a few. We 're trying to get the quantities up enough to get the manufacturing costs down to a reasonable level. Also does anyone have suggestions for what they 've used in the past? Below is a description of what the pedestals we 're working on will look like (pulled from an email). I'll post a pic as soon as the prototype is finished. >This would be a box for the touch screen >that pivots at 3 different angles. >Connection plugs (Ethernet & 120VAC, 24V >power supply included in the pedestal) will >be mounted on the box, eliminating the need >for conduit.

Interesting, we made our own by simpling using a Rittal cabinet that fits the display. Then cut a stainless steel pipe about 2 " diameter, then making a angle piece to fit the tube to the cabinet. The base is made out of aluminum and swivels 160. The wires pass through the tube to the machine.
