100" DIY Projector...

[randomlinh]

Does anyone have the link for this? Basically you can use a montior and "project" it on the wall. I have an extra CRT lyin around and wanted to see how usable it really is.

I believe you have to use an LCD panel, not a CRT.

well, it's not a real projector per se... more of a fun little hobby thing that ebayers try to scam you with. It looks ugly as hell, but it was dirt cheap (i'm talking like $10 in materials. heh).


The i-hacked link is on the right track... gotta find pictures

you need a LCD

you put a few hundred watts behind it, instead of a normal backlight, and use a lens to aim it properly.
then throw it all in a plywood box.

thing is. I cant afford a LCD.

Maybe strap and overhead projector to an old CRT. lmao. that would be quality.

What did they prop the lcd on. It shows pictures of the gap but how did they make the gap

 

[HamSupLo]

they made a gap with strips of styrofoam

 

[FFactory0x]

but look the lcd part doesnt sit on the styrofoam. The electronics do

That Tom's Hardware setup has a lot of problems. Check out what I did over the holidays. Omega Supreme! lol
