Here is my first attempt at a double Hass.

Nice. I was always wondering when someone was going to try that. I am still waiting on someone to put the curves on the sides and live the top and bottom flat.

Double Haas? I'm confused and I have built alot of Haas boxes. what have you got planned for us?

how many litres of wine does your fine new barrel hold,,, mmmm port barrel,,, mmmmm yummm

joe chevy inspired me with his pdf plan i just printed it at 300% taped it together stapled it to 4- 3/8 ply ran it thru the ban saw , stapled and glued.
Its lenght is 21 1/2 " long , center width is 6" , the ends are 4".
I wanted to do a wood turned (lathe) project but can't justify buying a lathe.
The trial and error is what keeps things interesting !

Double Haas, as in two LCDs as well? Two screens?
Don't get it.
Help.......

OK, so its a mini Haas that tapers both on the sides and top and bottom, cool.

One lcd , double Hass refers to the shape , i will post more pictures as i go.
I hope to refract the metal halide to have more light using less watts and less heat I HOPE.......Jeff
Trial and error

CHEERS.........Jeff

The light engine runs really cool in my 3" black pipe tee . A 3" lens is in the cross end.It will run even cooler with fans. Slowly shaping up.

thats pretty awesome.. you're also in the running for heaviest DIY PJ.. although it needs to be over 100lbs to receive the honor

Thanks ! Heavy yea ! , "SET IT AND FORGET IT" !
This is a great hobby.....Jeff

lol heavyest hahaahahha

Progress ! Light done , fans done , notice the temporary power cord,

Jeffreygtweed,

This is the first time I've read your plog, but I was just thinking about a Double Haas yesterday. The real challange is keeping it square to the world. Wow the internall stress to bend all those boards. How did you do it?

Looks very nice though!

Did I miss something or did you make a new box?

It sure looks that way!

That is the light engine box the haas box will be connected to it.....Jeff

I thought it was going to be tough but i pointed the 3/8 ply in the direction of its natural bend the curve was already started , when i glued and stapled i started from the center and worked out to the ends.
Thanks

Added Mirror , projector upside down.

Waiting on my lens to come in, right now using a fresnel and getting a 2 foot screen, had a 12 foot screen from a 4 inch lcd( too pixelated ), i will settle on a 5 foot screen.I still have to box in the electronics.The projector runs cool with a 175 watt mh bulb in a 3 inch black pipe tee, a 3 inch lens on the tee with 2 fans on the other ends doing the push pull action , i have no air running thru the lcd lens configuration although i am considering putting in a temp sensor bulb shut down.I have been running this configuration for two days straight without
Failure.Lumenlab has given me great ideas!
