For those that aren't familiar with Toughbook's they are a very impressive in terms of how much abuse they are designed for.
As a lot of the tings I do I'm in uncharted territory ,

another interesting build made, are you going to be able to lock the arms as well to prevent them moving around when you're driving?
It won't hurt the toughbook. You can throw them across the garage, punch the touchscreen.
Why a toughbook? What are the specs of the one for this build?
And this video is for those wondering why do they call it a toughbook.

is the first pics an original mounting idea then you changed your mind?
Yeah very simply because the mount has to be solid. The dash itself was a hard place to get a decent mount, thats why i decided to go thru it.Quote:
