Quick n’ Easy DIY Projection Screen

Today’s feature is from ProjectorCentral with the instructions: Make A 100″ Screen For Under $100:

At the end of this article is a list of materials and step-by-step instructions for building an impressive DIY screen for under $100. Basically, we constructed a frame made of wood wrapped in black Velveteen fabric, then attached photographer’s seamless roll paper to the back. It is as simple and easy as it can get, and it far outperforms a plain white wall.

This is surprisingly simple to make and they give a full list of recommended items to use so you don’t waste any money trying out different materials. The most expensive items are the seamless paper (around $26), the wood for the frame (approx $34) and the velveteen fabric (around $27). Prices might be a little off since the page was published in May of 2006, but they should still be in the ballpark.

Tools are basic, just a woodsaw, a staple gun, fabric scissors, and a drill (or a Philips head screwdriver).

Fully detailed with comparison photos included. Excellent!
