I am sure I have seen this design before just can't remember where .. 🙂 😉
Good job by the way looks good..

Just worried if a little bit of heat gets on the double sided tape it might just fall out hmm
I would be more worried about my fresnels and lcd if it gets that hot
This is cheap double sided tape 🙁 only stuff they had it is useless so i might have to use glue instead atleast that way it wont half stick
Just powered the projector up using my scrap lcd and it all seems pretty much lined up and displays a nice clear box lol
Might have some real results today

Im building a Lilliput Base PJ, this will be my first time using this LCD...
Just how delicate is that ffc cable that attaches to the LCD itself? You folks have got me scared to take the thing apart! I wouldnt want to ruin a $220 LCD...
Maybe I should just say the heck with building it and go buy an Infocus X2

Bloody delicate... if you breathe on it it aint gunna break but bending it more than half a dozen times aint gunna do it no good...
Making a bracket up to hold it in the desired position after you have stripped the monitor is not a bad idea and will be strongly considering this with my next LCD...
Goodluck with i mate...remember slow and steady, it aint a race, you will be fine 🙂
Well think hillbilly has covered it, if you can get a broke one for a few $$ of someone then its useful as you can use it for making a frame etc before using the working one 🙂 then the last one goes in at the very last stage

I havent stripped mine yet but after looking at others who have stripped theirs, Ive been thinking that maybe getting a piece of Glass cut to the exact LCD size, and placing it in the metal frame where the backlight was would help support the cable?
Another thing I was thinking is that from the looks of it, that cable was designed to be laying across the backlight, correct? Since it cannot remain in that position in a projector, it will be necessary to position it at a right angle to the LCD. This will put tension on the joint where the cable connects. Im wondering if... over time, it will break off anyway since its not positioned the way it was designed.
These lilliput displays are just stupid, i think i have just broke another ! it wont display **** on the screen and the fcc cable has burnt 😡
bugger to hear bout your hassels with the lilliput there mate,
