It's based around a Surface Go 2 I picked up off of ebay for $40. I set in the bios to boot when plugged in and kiosk mode to limit the battery to 50%. I cut a custom Mat to fit the screen. Not a whole lot 3D printing. Just spacers and brackets to hold the tablet centered.

Great idea! And it looks like a linux install on those go pretty dang smooth...

Yeah, I'm running lubuntu on it. I have bash script to turn it off when unplugged and I run feh with the slide show option on start up. It works fairly seamlessly.

This has incredibly high W PAF, really well done

Plus you just introduced me to a whole line of tablet option I didn't know was an option....

Edit: You know, WAF is unnecessarily gendered, I'm making it PAF for me now - partner approval factor.
