Greg from LaserBear recently started selling a kit that allows you to mount a small, iPad-style, 4:3 LCD screen into a 3D printed case that resembles a CRT. This case can be rotated onto either side, making it an excellent choice for "TATE mode" gaming as well. This video is an edited compilation of the two livestreams Greg and I did showing the assembly and testing, plus a fancy intro showing it in action. A lot more info can be found in the main post: https://www.retrorgb.com/laserbear-lcd-crt-case-reviewed.html
