I have made a set of 3d printable brackets for attaching the front aluminum bezel of the BV4 to the B&O/Panasonic plasma monitor without the B&O back frame. These were made for personal use but I thought I would make the STL file available on the forum in case others might find it useful.
They worked very well for me but feel free to tweak in CAD as needed.
They can be 3d printed as singles or as a set of six.
Just PM me if you want them. If the there is a place on Beoworld to post this or host the file I'm happy to put them wherever may be most useful.
A few notes:
•The BV4 is no longer in production so I don't feel that I'm infringing on B&O by providing this hack. However, if List mums feel this post inappropriate for any reason then please let me know.
•This is designed for the standard flat bezel. I have no idea if it would work for the curved.
•I've made two versions one for the BV4-65 and one for the BV4-50.
•They are pretty much invisible from the front and sides when wall mounted but might be visible from above if mounted extremely low on the wall.
•Require M3x20mm screw and washer which connect through the bracket into the original B&O thread holes on the bezel.
•NOT load bearing. Must remove when moving or transporting plasma.
•I found printing vertically from the rear of the bracket to produce the best results.
•I use three on top and three on the bottom. Installing the top three first to hang and align the bezel on the plasma (without fully tightening) and then then attach the bottom 2-3 to finish. Tighten all.
• A thin piece of felt glued to the pads of the bracket might be good to protect the panasonic plastic bezel if you ever plan on using the plasma without the B&O bezel again.
•Use at your own risk. I make no guaruntees. This is provided only as a courtesy.
•I'm not offering 3d printing services (unless someone wants to do business with my 9 year old who's not cheap.)
Nice idea!
the bezels are rare nowadays, but a great solution.
