Our Projector Mount |
||
| The projector mount is hand built. | ||
| Price | About $18 | |
| Where purchased | Lowes and Ace Hardware | |
| The mount that came with the projector wasn't the
greatest and I didn't want to spend $200+ for a good one so I built my
own. First off, I didn't get this idea myself. I saw a picture of something like this on AVS Forum. I tried to find the thread on the forum so I could credit the person but was unable to locate it. The mount is made from a piece of 3" wide oak and two pieces of 2" wide oak. A piece of 2" threaded pipe and two flanges purchased at Lowes. The wood was left over from a previous project and the flanges and pipe were about $10. The mount took a few hours to layout, cut, sand, screw together and stain. The metal was all painted. I purchased the metric hardware at Ace Hardware and then it took about an hour to get the projector hung up and aimed properly. The hardware was around $8. Total cost of the project was about $18. To aim the projector you simply turn it side to side on the threaded pipe. To adjust the angle, you simply adjust the nuts on the threaded rods. To see close-ups, click on the photos. |
