I must say, Aramosfet is a nice guy to work with...very cooperative.

Now that we have a prototype, we are planning to go for the projector design...but this time systematically with all past experiences documented.

Thanks Aramosfet...thanks DIYAUDIO.

Hi Bishnu,

I am planning to build the projector.For LCD i am planning to go for BenQ 15" G610HDA and need your advice, How is your experience in stripping this LCD? Have you faced any FFC issues? Or can you suggest me some good 15" LCD monitor which doesn't have FFC issues.

Thanks
Arun

Benq monitors are very easy to strip and don't have any FFC issue.Go ahead and get one Benq model monitor esp the 16 inch ones.

The page magnifyier should be on the light source side and the thicker fresnel towards the projection optics side
But you have to judge it for yourself, that which of your two lenses is better for the image quality and take that decision.
the LCD has to be closely sandwiched between the two fresnels with about a 1cm gap on both sides.
Optics is a crazy science all lenses react differently to each other. The trick that I used is that keep your LCD aside as it is the most expensive and delicate part of the projector, one wrong tug at the FFC cable and your LCD is history.
Make a dummy screen of the same dimentions, with a cardboard sheet ,and slip into it a ohp sheet with some markings on it.
Use this to play around with your light source and mark all dimentions in a cardboard mock-up box to control light scatter. Once you get an image of the required quality and size, then go in for the final box and lcd placement.
Best of luck.
And yes smooth sides of fresnel are towards the lcd on both sides
