Clinton,

Nice work and nice ergonomics. A very creative design.

I second that.
Man standard lightpaths that most people use are such a waste of space though. Look at a commercial projector, there isint any emptyness in any of them!
Anyway - well done Clinton

Cheers,
Alex

Thanks for the comments guys. Now i need to finish building the computer into the stand so i don't have that ugly tower sitting there.

I especially like the Shrek shot. Really good colours and very vibrant. Also can see you taking the picture in the reflector!

Keep up the good work

Does it have any heat problems, I see you don't have any cooling method? Metal does conduct heat much better than wood, so I guess the whole thing kinda acts like a heatsink right?

I'm in awe man, that's AWESOME work!

No no heating problems, those 2 80mm case fans above the light in the back (second pic of the insides) do a very nice job of cooling. The LCD stays at 82 degs F for as long as you want to watch.

Looks great, probly stupid question, but i'm new to all this but why hasn't some1 did this kind of design with a 7" lcd?

Very cool! But be careful where you point it. I swear that Flash Gordon used something that looked a lot like that to blow spaceships out of the sky. It's nice to see a new design, so many people seem to be following the same path. I think that since this is not your usual type of 'hobby' the projector can be a conversation piece when not in use. Why not make it look cool.
