Hi, as I'm having difficulty finding a large polished bowl like the Norpro to use as a reflector I was wondering if this will work???

Don't use a bowl reflector behind the bulb line and instead line the rear section of the projector with mirror to reflect the light through the lcd???

The fresnel wants all of the light to come from a single point. A reflector must be of a type that maintains the point light source. A spherical reflector is the easiest to use.

Hi Brainchild, thank you for the reply I'll find a replacement bowl that I can use in place of the Norpro.
