My friend wants to know if he should try this projection kit? He has seen my overhead projector and my panel setup and he wants to try something similar but doesnt have the money for a projector and a panel. I can understand where he is coming from the shipping of the overhead projector killed me.

IT'S JUNK. IT DOES NOT WORK. TELL YOUR FRIEND TO SAVE HIS MONEY, AND THEN SAVE UP TO BUILD A PROJECTOR. IF HE IS AMBITIOUS ENOUGH HE CAN PUT ONE TOGETHER FOR AS LOW AS $150.....I'VE SEEN IT DONE. IT WON'T BE AS GOOD AS A DIY ONE AT $300-$500 BUT IT WILL STILL BE LIGHTYEARS BETTER THAN THE CARDBOARD TV CRAP THEY ARE SELLING ON EBAY!!!
Sorry for typin all caps, but I felt like I had to shout.

hmmm..well wehn you see those ads on ebay it simply means that seller is out for the money nothing more nothing less,and you know what ..IT WORKS! these guys are getting rich off noobies money..lol
also IT DOES WORK!! but not the ones on ebay they just sell(free) plans...you WILL get a projected image and it will be comparable to that liquid stuff that droops from a k-9 @ss 🙂
if you want to make it a decent image i belive it CAN be done but with MUCH work...completely not worth it...
my 2 cents 🙂

You're right ND.
Maybe I should'nt have said that it does not work. I suppose what "works" depends on how that particular individual defines it.
In short, if you're going to use the Fresnel-cardboard junk, then you should definitely know that the picture will not look like what is advertised. The pictures they use in the advertisements are from expensive projectors. Also the pictures have been doctored quite a bit as well to fool unsuspecting buyers.
ND is right on another account as well. They are making a fortune on this junk. I don't have a problem with companies selling information that can be found for free. The main reason it's done is because people want convenience and would rather buy the information they need all in one place rather than search for it, but when what's being sold is of poor quality I get very angry about it.

I got a projection panel and a projector for about $130, shipped. Don't buy the fresnel crap, it sucks.
i got an nview z115 for $30, and an ohp for $40... The deals are there. I just saw a z115 close for about $25 a few days ago. Another auction for the same panel closed at $200... There deals are there, you just need to know where to look (i forgot to bid by the way 🙂 ).
