R2 Projector Update


I worked on it a bit more last night. I replaced a couple front panels with screen mesh (2 layers) and it turned out pretty good. When it's not running you can barely see inside, and with it on it's not too bad either. I had to sacrifice the front logic display (blue lights) to just ake one opened panel, but it was worth the sacrifice. I left it running for about an hour to see how hot it would get and it was venting really nicely, and didn't seem to hot at all.
I tried adding some more velcro do the dome wouldn't appear to be hanging, but it still kind of sags. I might just put a few strips that overlap vertically. It won't look great, but it willl fasten more securely. I will stil make an outline wheree he "goes into" the ceiling to neaten it up a bit. Yes I have to fix up the cables hanging there too. :)
Thanks for all the suggestions!!
