have an old rear projection tv... what to do with it?

[skate2]

My aunt gave me her 1990 zenith 46 inch projection tv. It doesnt work at all and Im not going to get a repair man to look at it as I dont think it is worth it.

Any ideas what I could do with it? Any parts in it worth using in a DIY Projector?

It has 3 sets of projection lenses in it. Maybe you could put a LCD panel and a light source in it and use 1 of the lenses for a rear projection big screen. All of the optic stuff is done for you. You would just need to strip out the old electronics and install the LCD and light.

Let me know if you decide to sell the parts on ebay. I'm interested in projection tv lenses.

What kind of lenses. I got zillions.

I service projos for a living.
