Which of these is easiest to rotate?

Hats off to the person that can lift the monitor out with those bars with the cab standing up.
I'm no Hercules, but I rotate the monitor of my NNC standing up alone, and it's heavier than the Blast City monitor.

The weight alone is not the issue. The issue is the weight + lack of place for your hands + the very narrow space to manovre that will result in scratching your fingers or the cab's paint with the sharp edges of the frame + the stupid precise precision you have to put it in to fit de D shape holes.

The handle bars would solve only one part of the issue. Clearly not a magic trickand you'd have to take the time to screw them in place before use, and remove them afterwards.
 
the trick with the blast is to loosen the monitor bolts so the frames can shift a little. it's a big help. also the easy removal of the CP lets you get right up close and is a huge benefit over rotating/pulling monitors in other cabs.

With all that said just lay it down and they are all easier.
 
I made a very poor video removing blast monitor. Definitely tough. But it is the fastest to get access too among the cabs.

I like removing top bolts as well to get clearance. Removing the cp helps for leverage but you can do with cp on.
 
Astro is turbo easy. I used to rotate mine once or more per month.

Litterally drop a blanket on the floor undo the front cover and screws as people have said lay it on its back stand over the cab. Lift turn drop and done. Change the bezel orientation, hen put everything elese back in reverse done.
 
Thank you to everyone who gave advice. I rotated the Astro last night. I put a moving blanket on the ground and set it on its back. I might need to figure out one of the other cabs later to have more than one vertical game in rotation but this is good for trying things out.
