Sorry to resurectan oldthread

But this Laminate your talking about.. is it the stuff in the kitchen section of homedepot? ITs really flimsy and its used onto of counter tops?
I looked at it, but the largest size was 4 feet in width which is too small
I'm in canada so we dont have alot of the same materials available that you get in the states
Right now i have a 92" B-Tech motorized screen with RF Remote controller but i'm selling this asi wanttomake a false wallwith screen built in,any ideas of screen material? I know of BOC but i want something that will be flush with my false wall without too much hard work. My false wallwill be 5/8 thick so ilooked at Melamine which is 5/8 and comes in 4x8 which with a black boarder will giveme a 92" screen but i've heard reports of possible hot spotting. And to be honest i would prefer a alrger screen size 100 or 120

That's the stuff alright. Here is a better solution using the same ideas. You can get a 110" diagonal screen following the instructions there or use a bit more material for maybe a 115" screen or so with some minor adjustments in calculation. Just make sure your projector has enough throw distance to fill the screen.

That post continues to get hundreds of hits a day. Be sure to check out AVSForum.com's DIY projection screen threads. There are a few people there that have taken what I have done and improved upon it.

Best of luck.
