Found this bad boy next to the dumpster. 32" Samsung. Anything I can do to salvage it? Or is it too expensive to fix? (I'm pretty handy)
Or could I use it as is and somehow only use the working portion of the screen?

I would say to use it as a monitor it is probably not going to work as the actual part that makes the image is broken. However you could probably repurpose it as an artificial light such as the one from DIY Perks YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/6bqBsHSwPgw
