I never said this was a how-to video. It would be duplicated effort. Check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7lWqKHpGuc&NR=1 if you want to learn how to build one yourself. Their project looks to be very similar to what I did.
Cost: under $200. Make an 8 foot screen TV / computer monitor from old computer parts and an overhead projector. The projector is higher wattage (brighter) and the screen has more pixels (sharper) than a standard computer projector so overall I’m quite satisfied with the way this project turned out. The higher wattage bulb is bright enough for a clear daytime picture but it also raises your electric bill and puts out a lot of heat. I taped a quiet CPU fan on top to keep the screen cool. It just blows across the top surface of the screen, nothing fancy.
Operating system: Fedora Linux $Free
Computer: Junk AMD 1GHz O/C to 1.4 GHz (upgraded to 2200+) $40. (It came conveniently with a vintage ATI All-In-Wonder R200 TV/video card)
Monitor: Generic LCD (WXGA?) 14″ $20
Projector: Used OHP re-wired $50
Screen: Letter-size paper sheets and lots of scotch tape.

some overhead …
some overhead projectors comes with the fan installed on them.depending what kind of use they are built for.if u get one without the fan most likely u will,then fine.just but a desktop cooling fan sold seperate @ a pc hardwear supply.then all u do is find a power supply that match the voltage need to power up the fan.9-12 v dc adaptor.

Thanks for the tip, too bad i’ve already taken apart the 15″ LCD i bought from ebay lol. It works fine but it’s turning out to be a right pain in the i’ve had to order a ffc extender which has cost me around £30 because of stupidly high postage fees. Any way thanks for the tip.

hey just a heds up u might wana consider a portable dvd player screen insted of takin apart an lcd.the best thing with the dvd player u just gotta take the back of the screen case off.that’s how i did mine i still controll the pic quality it’s great.just make sure your overhead is the same size as the screen the smaller it is the quiter it is .

hi i was wondering is the over head really loud? i’m about to make one similar to urs but not to keen on the idea of old cooling fans running in the background also have you got a cooling fan cooling in between the screen and the overhead if so how are you powering it?

You won’t see the …
You won’t see the fine detail of this screen because the resolution of youtube video is only 320×280. Most computer monitors and projectors have better resolution than a TV, unless you’ve got one of those high-end 1080p units for which broadcasts don’t seem to exist.
