DIY Projector Screen?

[rdej47]

What would be the best way to make a cost effective projector screen. I was thinking some PVC pipe for a frame and then just fabric from a fabric store for the screen. Would there be a specific fabric to use?

Why would anyone mess around with half ass looking PVC pipe and spandex?

Just buy some blackout cloth on eBay. The same material is used for all projector screens. Except grey screens or transparent ones. they have that too . But make the frame from home depot. use 1 x 4 and and 2 x .25 flat baseboards and then cover them with felt. Job done and total cost less than a 100 bucks with a professional look. I've got a 180" screen at my house and it's awesome
