when you buy the plans\pieces, they give you acess to their help forum, and tons of customer service. i just havnt gotten myself around to building one yet. the only part you need to get yourself is the LCD monitor (and a small one can be had quite cheap now'adays)

i dont know if you wanna sticky this- but it might bring a whole new thing to some of your garage and spare MDF. i wanna start building one after i get my car done.

You wouldn't say that if you used a projector to any great extent. I'll never own a standard TV ever again, atleast not for my main tv.

And about you eye's getting messed up from watching it big, I don't know WTF you guys are talking about. We have one of mine set up at 126" and it doesn't bother any of us at all.

 
how far away are you sitting from it? thats what makes the difference
All the way in the back!

If you stand up and block my view, you will be in pain via rott iron chair beemed across the room @ your head. If I miss, I have 4 more tries;) If I miss those consider yourself lucky until you return!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif Seriosly, don't block my view. Ask anyone in my family and friends - they know;)

 
to big of screen, sitting to close makes ur eyes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif happy now? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
