I had to come back for a second look. I love that symmetry. This inspires us to a new level in design. My box now seems a joke and I will have to come up with something new. Its funny how we focus on the engineering and forget aesthetics. Thanks for sharing this.

Other sites eat your heart out!

Default WOW WOW WOW

This looks great!
Inside and out.
If it was not working it would still be great

I have never seen projector that I really liked commercial or not.
Until now.

I bet even my wife would let me have it in our living room

Great work, Great design!

Now just make sure that B&O people don't see it.

Cheers!

Thank you all for your real nice comments.

I had several vid night sessions and and it is still a lot of fun to watch...

now with the NBA finals comming up i'm really looking forward to that...



@gguertin145

i said the guys in the german diy forum are at it; but they have no news about that yet

plus they're now at a 15.4" Wide Screen Display with HDTV resolution (1900x1080), but still no news either...

They are trying to get informations about the two displays from a korean seller, but that guy doesn't answer...

DUDE!

Fantactic work, sir! I especially love the tongue-in-cheek Qualia elements.

I've been considering a panel like yours as well; great to see it up and working for someone else.

Design-wise, I was very impressed by the internal segregation of light and image engines, and especially your cooling methods.

Also, kudos for posting the daylight results.

Can't wait to see your next one!

Hi,

Finally I see something, that I would place in my room without shame

What was the total cost of this masterpiece? I'm especially interested how much you paid for this LCD. And how much time did you spend building this projector?

Best regards
Pawel

total cost 450 bucks

LCD 180 bucks in an online shop in switzerland
(http://byho.com/ishop/)

for this projector i needed like 8 months to build, because i am a full time student and don't have much time...

the developement to this stage was something like 4 years... in this 4 years i have built 7 projectors until this "final step", which i consider the final stage worth to present :-)

today i wouldn't build another one, i would try to get a cheap dlp projector modded with a 150W MH bulb... this is what some guys tried in the german forum and some succeeded...

that could be a next project, but i think at the earliest when this beamer is damaged or something and would not be worth to repair anymore...
