You can't make a projector out of a CRT Monitor. It would be too costly as you will need remove all 3 cathode rays and use 3 different lens. On top of this, you will get a poor image quality due to it's poor resolution and brightness/contrast capability. It is not recommended due to radiation and all that. So for now it is either a DIY LCD or modded commercial projector.
Years a people did make projectors using a crt and a huge fesnel sp? lense.
They were verry big and realy had poor picture quality. You realy don't want to
use a CRT.

They used TV's ....
Need a metal coated torus shaped screen too, cause the brightness is very low.
Such screen is ~ 200 usd in itself, and quite a few days of work.

DIY CRT projector is a definate NO NO. It is not possible as with the quality of the image you will get, I doubt you can really call it a projector. Totally not recommended. Chuck the TV and get yourself a DLP Projector with a dead lamp and tinker about with that.
Tritosine, you should start a new thread as there may be others who may be interested in DLP RPTV Mods.
