Building your own projection tv

[Spicker]

Hey guys!
just wanted to let you all know that i finally finished my projector and the results are jaw dropping!


link if u cant see the images:

and btw the images are projected on a PINK wall and...i dont have a reflector in there...after painting the wall and adding a parabolic reflector the brightness is literally going to double.

but even without all that the quality is qutie stunning!

EDIT:
as for the projected screen size is from 70"100+" depends on what im doing...

i prefer having it at 70" when watchin movies as the sofa is quite close to the wall....

Hey Spicker, those are great results

I got sidetracked and moved back to the states so haven't done anything yet other then gather a couple of small parts

As soon as I get set back up financialy etc. I will get on it again.

Any others have some pics?

After prolong procrastination, I just started mine (under arctan): http://www.lumenlab.com/forums/index...howtopic=13531

I hope to be up and running in two weeks.

That's looking really good Darth

How long has it taken you to do what you have so far? Once you actualy began that is

I still haven't decided what type I want. I am leaning toward vertical, but tall like a pillar or something. I geusss it depends on when I begin and if I still live where I am now.

I like the idea of having my couch and love seat set up at a 90 degree angle and have the pillar set between them aiming to the center of in front of both.

Let me know how the pro lens comes out too

Well, I spent about 4 months trying different designs on paper. I just did not like the length of a straight path design. So far, it's been about 3 weeks into this build. I know... I'm a slow builder. I give an update upon mounting the LCD.
