Ever hear Weird Al's song, "Ken's 2000 Inch TV?"

 :)

EDIT -- Or was it "Frank's 2000 Inch TV?"

Try www.driveinworkshop.com


Most drivein theater screens have a picture size area of around 40 feet high by 94 feet wide. They are made of steel "I" beams with a metal surface.

I saw that thing in Frontgate (www.frontgate.com). 

Seems like an overpriced piece of poo that your kids will soon (easily!) break >:(

I think I will stick with the Projector I built. Its normally about 10 feet wide picture. I took it to a Gym and was able to get it to about 25 feet wide. Built it with the plans from Lumenlab.com using and 15 inch LCD screen and a 400 watt light. Nothing better than playing video games and watching movies. ;D
