well guy's i got mine going tonight!!!!!!!
i must say that this is the best thing that i have ever seen... i will post some pictures of this thing in action probably tomorrow. i finally have the BIG screen tv i have always wanted... a brief rundown of my setup samsung ltn1565 (s) version all lenses from lumen lab all lighting equipment from lighting unlimited/the new 400 watt hor eye lamp norpro reflector 100cfm fan mdf enclosure bed sheet from the wife's linnen closet for the enclosure i made a sub box section in front to hold the lcd controler(you will see when i post picts.) i set this projector up to be a floor mounted model with keystone correction. i still have to build the entertainment (trunk) however that will hold the projector,suround system, playstation ect. and movie storage area. i could not believe my eyes when i turned this thing on. i switched everything on and slowly the picture started to come through untill the lamp turned fully on and whalla a nice bright even lit 115" clear image ok ok well i did have to focus it a little bit but other than that every thing was dead on for alignment. (thanks to brains great measurments and guide) i am so glad that i found this site and went through with it and made the projector. ok thanks time  thank you brain for sharing your design with the community, you the man  thanks guys, this group has been a great help, supportive, and fun thanks to my wife who has been waiting for me to finnish it for quite a while.  so now i need to get a good screen for it. my wife said wow now that this is running go get a good screen...spare no expense.. yea it looks that good. -------------------- my Mini Cooper S took on a moose

Sounds great.
 can't wait to see pics of what it looks like and some pics of your results. Have you checked out evo's screen? He did a really great job on his. Maybe something like that.

 Truely inspiring. Everytime I see knew results like this I want to start my project. Unfortunately my first priority is to purchase a truck to pull my horse trailer ( whole different forum, I know). Great job Moose.
