I think you're wasting your time trying to build a projector. What I remember from several years ago was a giant plastic lens you could put over a TV set, then you had to invert the TV picture to make it come out right. Unfortunately, most video projectors are expensive (Around $1000US)and I don't know anyway around that except finding a used projector.

ussually some on ebay .. you can get some pretty cheap .. though if not working (CRT type) -- it can cost you a LOT of money to get it fixed ..

some lcd projectors are ebay because they could not get bulbs for them anymore... which makes them worth zero -- but I see them being sold ..

Do you have the one where you have to cut out a lens or something and add it to a TV?? If so, let me know...one of my friends tried it and failed and I can ask him for his CD. I'll pm you the instructions.
