Did a test run today with the projector as I was worried that after sitting for a year that all of the adjustments we did would be erased but it ended up working better than I expected. I am also pretty excited to see that the math I did last night was right and the image did not go off the top of the screen.

Thanks! I need to do some minor adjustments but it worked pretty good for watching Tron.

Thank you! I am very happy with how it turned out. Now I just need to get some drive-in speaker poles made and I will be set. Just need to find a place that will weld them that will do a good job and not charge me hundreds of dollars. (as much as I would like to get my own welder for this job I don't see that happening for a while)

I don't think I ever posted any pictures of my "drive-in" so here are a few pictures of the first time I set it up.
