Outdoor movie screen
ChadTower:
Heh, read the rewiews... "the fan didn't work, it won't go back in the bag, didn't work in wind, the fans suck up grass, and the bag was ripped" and then the person gives it a 5 star rating. ::)

Nice job on the screen!
Not trying to take away from the DIY aspect, but for anyone interested in an outdoor screen, wal-mart has the inflatable gemmy screen on sale for $163.

I know I mentioned this before, and I know it's more expensive than the DIY solutions, but after trying several different DIY solutions, I'm pretty happy with this. Setup is not too tough, and it stows in a duffle when you're done. No permanent mounts necessary. Three downsides to this - it's not good in high wind, the tiedown ropes are not adjustable as delivered (easily fixed), and it's more fun to DIY ;D
So my only question now is - what's the 1st movie gonna be? :)

That's a great price for a blow up screen that size. The reviewers also say the screen is detachable. It won't work for my setup due to the hill in my back yard. I'm setting up the projector at the edge of my patio, and projecting to the screen 20 feet down the hill. The land will not be flat where the screen goes.

Wouldn't it have to be detachable? A good screen would get all crinkled up and crappy if you just jammed it into a bag.

Well it is from Wal-Mart, and priced at a fraction of competitors.
