Howdy,
A friend of mine asked me to ask the HTF folks about a projector. He is getting an older model projector (the one with the three lenses on it, not the new fancy one lense ones
). He saw a pull-down screen for about $200 but wanted to know if there was a good way to make his own. He wants to make a screen to fit a particular part of his basement to shoot the picture on. He owns and runs a sign shop and has access to all sorts of materials to use, but wanted to know if there was a particular material or paint that can be used to make a do-it-yourself projection screen that works well. Is it as simple as white background? Or do certain white reflect better than others? Just curious.
Thanks!
Phil
