    I had made several large light weight wooden frames for fabric and oil paintings, up to 72" x 60".

    With the right type of fabrics, I should able to make a home brew projection.
    So, I don't have to project video on a blank wall.

    What fabrics that I can get from JoAnn Fabric or Walmart to build a good projection screen ?

    How much harder is that to figure out a back projection screen ( instead of the front projection ) ?

    Some people use a flat wall and special paint such as ScreenGoo but most use material on a wall:

    Any fabric would work for front projection but back projection requires special material.

    The trouble is projector only work well in my man cave in the basement.
    I am planning to occasionally set it up in the bed room to watch some late shows.

    I was looking for screen material wit high gain, to get a brighter picture in the bed room.

    From your link, now I know high gain material has limited viewing angle. THANK YOU.
