Making a Projector Screen
Manufactured projector screens are carefully tested for optimal viewing in different angles. These projection screens are expected to provide the best match to the projectors available in the market. However, some people want to make the projection screens they will use for their home theater viewing. Homemade projection screens can easily be made with lower cost, a little time and some assembly at which will not cost more. They may not be as clear and may not present pictures as accurately as the manufactured projection screens, but there are specific people who still prefer to make their own projection screens not to save money but for their own satisfaction and interest.
The overall idea in making a projection screen is to make a lightweight frame, wrap borders in black fabric, then attach the viewing fabric to the back. And this is not going to take much time, even you and I can fix it if we get chance of watching how its done one or two time.
