Since I have no CRTs anymore on my Main PC I had to create a Mount for a LCD but I didn't want to have to stick on to it to were if I ever have to remove it.

Corny but works

So cool! I am impressed!

(I tend to improvise stuff out of crochet so I'm impressed to see such a different medium being used. I can't think how I would crochet a webcam holder like that but I guarantee if I had a projector like that I would have crocheted a hanging sling for it!)

For you know Gigaware is Radioshack

It Projects up to 50"


I will say is it Standard Def and not High Def, The Speaker is a crap but if you have a stereo that is no problem. The Brightness is may by about like the LED Maglights so don't expect the brightness to be like the projectors that are over $1000US. I got this when it was on sale one year for $100US normal price I think is $200. You can s**t it on any wall and I do suggest a White all if able Flat paint on the wall and if need you can go to walmart and get a white bed sheet and pin it on the wall with thumb tacks.

RadioShack Item number on that Box is
25-1198

Specs
Aspect Ratio : 4:3
Lens: Manual Focus
Brightness : 10Lm
Computer resolution supported:
Default: 640 x 480
Maximum 1024 x 768
Projection Distance: 19.7-78.7" (50 - 200cm)
Image Size: 31.7-127cm (12.5-50")Max
Embedded Audio: Monoaural 1w
Power Comsumtion: 9Watt Max
Unit Voltage: 12V DC 1.5A Adapter: 110-240Volt
Unit Dimensions: 3.5 x 1.7 x 3.1 in (90 x 44 x 80mm)
Weight: 6.7oz (190g)

Also on the bottom of the projector there is a mounting part so you can put it on a Camera Tripod. Also I looked into new LED bulbs they run about $100US because they are special built LED Light Bulb. Also the fan on it to keep the Circuits cool is loud.

With the Fan I have Highly sensitive hearing but the fan is in the range that does not bug me once I get the Movie or Game going on it with sound. I am just putting that out because I know everybodys hearing is different on this Forum. Also I guess if the fan does bug you can create a projector box to muffle the sound.
