Hi folks,
I'm thinking of making my own screen, does anyone have any ideas of an effective and cheap method? I want a 54"x96 screen (a few inches smaller would be OK). I was thinking of getting a large 12mm MDF sheet and either covering it with screen material (spray mount), or painting it? I can buy white or grey screen material and I will add a 3" black stage velvet border. My only concern is that this will be a little heavy and I was wondering if anyone new of another lighter, flat material, that comes in large sheets? I suppose that if I am covering it though, I could join 2 pieces (or more) together?
Cheers Kane
P.S. If anyone knows how to make a simple adjustable masking system, this would be helpful too.
