Don't you wonder why there's no picture of the "projector" on the entire website?

I love how they show people with expensive looking home theater rooms and try to pretend they would stoop to using a $17 homemade TV.

prolly one of those jank mylar lens boxes that sits in from a tv and magnifies the image as a projection.

Has anyone ever seen this thing in person?

AgentCash · 01-09-2005, 10:23 PM

You can find the plans for free. Basically you take a TV, open it up and increase the brightness as far as it will go, then stick a fresnel lens in front of it.

Here is what you get... the plans on how to make it, and a cheap lens.

It's just a projector. It will most likely just amplify the light from the smaller T.V.

flashfire · 01-09-2005, 10:41 PM

xclusive · 01-09-2005, 10:43 PM
