Nice! I have the same brand projector and screen!

Get "trailer tires" their sidewalls are made different.

Let me find a picture of mine

 

You sound happy about the screen, i vaguely remember you talking about it some time ago.

 

Seeing one bomb through the woods and keep up with my other friend's dakota back in high school, THAT was impressive.

They're as capable as you are willing to see what they can do

"I don't bother changing any fluids other than oil since everything else will be more expensive than the car itself"

"I have a degree in engineering and CAN'T work on my car because the car is worth less than my torque wrench"

That one I posted isn't my buddy's Geo but I'll see if I can find a picture of it. He had a budget of like 4 grand for a car in high school, and found that thing on the list for 250 bucks and bought it mostly as a joke, but also because the scrap yard down the road said they'd pay 300 for it.......

He drove it through high school, then college, then into his professional career.

 

And ruin all the fun of shitting on each manufacture.

honestly, full size is great for some, I didn’t consider one due to the lack of manual transmissions, and come one saying I drive a taco is way better than saying I drive a Ford, now that Lita is older

 

yeah yeah…do you have covid cables tho!!

 

No

I had no idea that was a thing. Those poor bastards. Or lucky bastards, look at all the free publicity!

 

I am, very much so. Its an Eilte Screens 120" (I believe). You can see it in the background in this picture.




And here's a picture of the 1st one that @Pugga bought off of me

 

We just bought a projector off Amazon. Got a screen too but it's literally just a screen, no stand or frame. Need to either cobble one together or return the screen and get one that has a frame/ stand.

 

I bet their analytics went off the chart. No publicity is bad or some such they say?

I think that’s the same screen we got. Or very similar if not! Glad to hear you like it.

 

Still going strong, it got some use last summer and will get used quite a bit coming up this year!

Before I had an actual screen, I used to clip a silver tarp to the eaves with a white sheet in front of it. You could likely just do the same with just the screen.

 

Does anyone here have a 3d printer?

I would like something made, though, I have no idea how


Couple small parts...

 

@Bridge4

Where did you order from?

 

I reached out to Chris via email explaining what I was trying to do and my budget, then he put together some good options and explained why I wanted everything and how I would connect stuff. Very helpful guy, they are in AZ though so he was usually emailing close to my bedtime!

Do you have 3d models, or you need it designed?

 

Kinda need it designed. But, should be super simple. I'd turn it out of metal if it was worth it, and I wasn't worried about them popping off....

Would like to make some insert caps for the ball joint bore.. since we are hear in rust/rot and it WILL accumulated sand, salt etc...
Something held in with a little silicone so they can be popped off and the BJ can be serviced. Was thinking plastic, as it wouldnt damage anything if I lost one or both...

 

Here is our frame


Poor kids lost their swings, but we gained many outdoor streaming music shows.

 

I might have a couple caps you can have. I have some extra camburg ones

 

Awesome, thanks. Curious as to the diameter? Not sure if they will be the same. This is for the "other truck", and uses a press in titan ball joint

 

I'll measure when I get a sec.
