Great video, I've wondered for a while of the best way to build one of these, you saved me hours of work trying to figure out the best material to use!
Glad to hear that! This is such a great way to save some money if you want to build your own theater. I hope you use it and feel free to show off your results on the forum. I know we would all love to see the finished project.
Great, to the point video. My only issue with the UF screen material is it has a 0.8 gain. With perforated screens you’re sacrificing brightness to begin with and a 0.8 gain takes that down even further.
That's good information. What's the gain on spandex?
@@gblackmore3 not sure. I would imagine it’s around 1.0 but I’ll see if I can find a source
Biscuit Joinery is Great for gluing up 45° cut corners!!! Super Quick and Easy!😁👍🏻...just like making a face frame for a cabinet!
That's a great call! Another great tool to use. Thanks for the input!
Wonderful video thank you. This is what I wanted
Nice to see good old Klipsch F3's that i also have :)
Thanks man. Thst was actually in my old home theater. I left those when we sold the house. Hopefully the new owner is still enjoying them.
Good to know about the screen material, im going to attempt to make a retractable screen soon with tab tension because I havn't been able to find acoustic transparent screen small enough for my situation
You should check out the center stage UF material and see if it works for you
Can you please build a HPM 100 type size box with a 12-in woofer, mid-range and tweeter for $300? I would definitely buy those plans. I know there's a way you can do it where the speakers will sound incredible on the cheap.
Great! I can't thank enough for this info!
I've been looking for this video for a while! nice and easy enough. How do you determine how much spandex/velvet to buy? I plan on building a 158-inch 2.35:1 screen in my theater. Great work done man!!
Awesome video, could you make a video on fp graph tracer?
Have you had any issues with the wood moving after you built the screen?
I made a DIY one many years ago, but the cheap fabric is not near a proper screen like elite screens with ALR, good gain and grey for daytime viewing. But in a light controlled environment its not that bad with DIY. Using ALR UST Elitescreens now, with laser PJ
This was really talking mainly about acoustically transparent screens and which I did mention high-end screen material that you can purchase DIY. If you don't need acoustically transparent material, you can get DIY ALR fabric right from Amazon and still save yourself a ton of money. amzn.to/3AnTtIc
And if you really want high-end you can go with silver ticket DIY ALR material. "Silver Ticket Products Solid Front Projector Screen Material ALR Grey" www.silverticketproducts.com/products/silver-ticket-products-solid-front-projector-screen-material-alr-grey-raw-material-1-3-gain-hdtv-4k-8k?variant=32803102523472¤cy=USD&
@@Toid yep, for controlled lighting the cheap fabrics also work quite well (but not for short throw in my experience). In my kids room I even just painted the wall in a matte grey color and it looks quite well considering what it is.
What equipment do you currently have in your theater?
Apollo p40 vs yaber ace k1.
Which one is brighter with better picture quality?
How do you like the UF material? That’s a top contender for my screen build.
I really liked it. I have recently replaced it with a silver ticket WAB. Which I also appreciate because it’s a little bit bigger. The main reason I ended up switching to the WAB is because it is easier to stretch evenly. And I wanted to use it also with an ultra short throw projector. You didn’t stretch as evenly and it did show some waves in the picture with the ultra short throw.
blimey , maybe i should be a projectionist again ?
bed sheets . yes bed sheets was first used for cinema . guess you didn't know that if hanging around on that avs site .
plastic acoustical transparent screens didn't come around until the invention of plastic in around 1950's .
okay i have some films to watch now on x154 JBL professional cinema PA , with legit THX . i maybe educate you more on this later when i have the time .
What are you taking about? No one talked about bed sheets.
@@Toid yes the did lol . i did i said how it started history . anyway , do what you want do
@@andysummersthxcinemaandmyc7748 I was referring to the video. The video didn't bring up bed sheets. And no one should be using it for a projector. I'm not even sure you watched the video. Your comment doesn't make any sense as to what they video is about.
Can u make a video on a diy push push dual 8” sub ultra compact that can work in home home and car
I don't have any plans to do one right now
Nice video... I knew a lot of the separate bits before but nice to see it all together. One thing though ... in 2024 now with the prices of large TVs dropping I think the days of 100" projection screens are dead... would get a massively improved HDR image on these new 100"+ TVs. Projection only really useful now for much bigger screen sizes... right now I'm trying to make/build/buy parts for a 140" about size. Also I noticed in your video you just had speakers in big empty space behind screen - you know that's bad right, was that temporary mock setup? Needs a baffle wall to control all the audio reflections bouncing back and forth off back wall and back of screen causing destructive interference and bad audio... that's another thing I'm right now in middle of trying to design/build.
so the frame sticks out more than the fabric? can someone please clarify?
That is correct. You connect the screen material to the frame for tension. This is why the frame is on the outside. Also, you’re always going to have some type of over skin, so the frame wrapped properly will kill any over bleed from the projector
Would you recommend wrapping the fabric behind the frame for smooth edges?
What size board did you use for the frame ?
3/4”
You only built a 4ft wide screen? That's a 55" screen. Doesn't make sense to do a projector for that at today's tv UHD prices. Building a 100 or 120" screen is more toward the real need. Does the Center Stage UF require a backing material? That would add to the cost.
How's the picture on that material?
Really good. I’ve been able to calibrate quite a few projectors to get stellar results. I really enjoy it.
Thanks for reply ,I might try your idea as the placement of my center speaker is the only thing i don't like in my Hometheater .
I THOUGHT YOU WERE SETH ROGEN
Do you still use this screen?
I do. It’s my main theater screen
All you need really is a pin. And a couple of years of free time.

Sorry I missed the 1.44:1 ratio, this site should help you calculate it: screen-size.info/
@@Toid Thats right, Im building an IMAX at home. cool ay?
@@dealerovski82 it is cool. I don’t personally know of much content in that size format. It’ll be nice for those that are though.
@@Toid there arent any 😂 I plan on they kidness and let me have some.
