Wow this was posted 7 years ago? You’re still helping people build an amazing projector screen! Everything someone needs to know to build it is in this video. The tools. The material. The measurements. The placements. And the possible problems and how to fix the problems. Everything is in this video! A true “How to” video! Well done sir! Mm Since it’s been 7 years, do you still have it up? Has there been any problems since you put it up? I would love to know!
Great build Rick. I did pretty much the same a few years back but I used 1"x2"s instead. Turned out great and it was light enough to hang with 2 picture hanging anchors.
Yo wtf bro I literally cried watching this. I've never seen such a soothing process in building a real life projector screen. I'm happy for you that you have a wife who you seem to have a very good relationship with. I hope you guys will be together forever, and I;m sure you will. Keep jiving my man keep it up xoxo love you
Just ordered that smaller Kreg Jig and fabric from Carl's Place. Doing basically exactly the same just a wee bit smaller. Super simple design with outstanding results. Thanks for the guide!
Brilliant Easy to follow, excellent instructions, potential problematic issues defined and basically a blueprint how “how to make” videos should be presented, a little, music, humor and editing combined with a lot of information. Be proud, nice job.
Followed the instructions to the T and ended up with a beautiful projector screen! The one thing I did wrong was follow your instructions to set my kreg jig to 3/4” because I was using 1x4s so I drilled all the way through. So I got some more wood and set it to 1” and the rest of the job was a piece of cake! Thanks so much for the tutorial! I have no woodworking experience but I’m so happy how it came out following your process! I even did the French cleat using my neighbor’s table saw!
I'm in school for interior design and woodworking in Austria and I've actually never seen screws put in at an angle this way but it looks way easier than any other framing techniques we had to learn, probably going to try this one out soon. Also I just found your channel and your videos are amazing and really helpful.
Man, so I’m in the process of this project. 170” screen. When I was mounting the cleat to the wall I snapped the lug bolt. FML. Ended up using the spot right below that. So far so good. Tomorrow going to stretch the screen. So nervous. It’s been tough. You make it look so easy.
Rick, I never comment on people youtube video but sir, this is one of the best instructional videos I've seen thus far buddy. Keep it up and thanks cause i was about to spend $300 on a screen size that was too small for my vision of a threater room. Thanks again Rick!
I very rarely comment, or even like videos. Not because I don’t want to. There are loads of excellent people out there making amazing content, that I watch over and over again. But I am now going to take the time to make you my first comment and like in -I don’t know how long. I have to say, you’re awesome dude. Not only do you seem well versed in diy, but your process is well thought out and carefully executed. Definitely going to browse through the lot of your videos. Thanks.
Thank you for the step by step guide. I did essentially everything you did, including picking up the baby Kreg Jig and it turned out great! I cannot thank you enough, this is by far the best guide I came across on TH-cam. Continue doing what you're doing... You're good at it.
It's soothing to watch this. It seems to be the combination between chill music and straight forward working, do this, do that, step by step and everything gives you results. Appreciate it
FYI u don't need to get the screen rolled get it folded cheaper and when u start stretching it out it goes smooth and flat in seconds I done 3 screens about to move and do it again this video had a nice way to hang the screen before I just used 3 inch screws on each corner 2 on each side now I will used this guys method hope it works but I wonder if I only got one inch from the top and bottom of the screen of space how will I mount the screen on the mount ????
Hey Rick, awesome video. I used it about 5 years ago to build my screen. Came back to build another. If im not mistaken you had a link that would show different dimensions for the screen depending on what size you wanted to build
i did something a bit more simple.. Went to homedepot and bought a large canvas drop cloth. At the top, attached the cloth to a rigid PVC pipe and hung it from the ceiling. At the bottom, used the same PVC pipe and added some weight in the pipe to help hold the cloth taunt. Then I can roll it up and get behind it when ever i need to. Oh, that cloth was a bit on the Tan side, so i washed it a few times with bleach to Whiten it and get those fold wrinkles out of it... Might no be as good as this guys material, but i haven’t had any issues. I have an Epson 3D projector and the picture and 3D effect has been flawless. I guess it could be brighter with a super white and slightly reflective screen... But the whole setup cost me about $20. Easy and cheap to replace if i accidentally rip it or stain it. Just a thought.
I had this same exact project, with the same exact size screen. I can't stress how nostalgic this is for me. My project took 6 hours with help. Stretching and stapling definitely took forever. Tip about the felt tape is spot on, I have a small crack in one of my corners. :
Your screen looks great and you inject just the right amount of humor to keep it interesting. Dangerous watching people like you though because you're obviously a very skilled woodworker. I might just get the idea that I am as well, which is sadly not the case. 🤣🤣
Great video. I am getting ready to make a 140” 2.35:1 scope screen. Just that I already have a 65” OLED on the wall. What I want to ask is this, we gave people who watch a whole lot of tv and that would burn the bulbs. I would like to figure a way to mount the screen over the OLED . And then have a way to lift it up when we watch tv. Maybe using the small shocks you see on car hoods or hatches. Have you ever thought about something like that?
did this last month for our church. the material is cheaper direct but does work great. we just used 2x4s and wrapped around the edges so 2 cuts and done. 30 mind and $90 total cost. found an Epson 3lamp on amazon for 700 and it looks fantastic.
One trick I did to make the smoothing go better was to do a temporary securing job with of gorilla tape every couple inches. Using the tape allows multiple re-positioning, and holds for the hour or so needed to get it smoothed out and stapled. Using the small pieces allows for compensating for stretching in the direction along the edge. Thee gorilla tape's extra grip enabled a better hold with some stretch. After that, stapling was quick and smooth.
Thank You so much! I've built my screen EXACTLY as you described it. Took me an afternoon! It was awesome. Thanks for the great ideas and tips. It made this effortless...
Did mine per the 120” BOM. came out outstanding. TY!! The hardest part (to me) was cutting/installing the blk velvet tape on. Holy cow. The easy part was getting all the wrinkles out and shooting a couple hundred staples in to secure the material to the wood. (Electric stapler for the win)
Glad to see that you and the project manager could work together on this one. The final product looks fantastic, just don't tell her about the wood glue on the carpet ;)
Love this video, definitely a big helper in making me decide to have a go at my own. Can I ask - why did you have the cleat sat on top the frame, rather than sat "in" the frame, lets say flush between the 2 uprights ? (Thats how I plan to do mine so was wondering if maybe its a bad decision as clearly you know wood a LOT better than I do !!)
Great screen! May I suggest... While stretching the screen material one person method start with thumb tacks before using staples, you start on corners first! Start on one corner with tact's then go to opposite corner while stretching material, then another corner then opposite corner. After you get it nice and tight staple corners and remove tact's, after that the sides are easy! This is a great method I discovered on my own, also I took a sander and sanded the FRAME Screen side corners so the when stretching material no sharp corners to rip the screen while stretching! Hope this is helpful! Have a great day!
I'm wondering who will give a thumbs down for this hard work put into building his projector. What brought them on the page? Either you didn't know how to do it and came to learn or you have a PhD in carpentry, in that case, have a better video of the same concept. Shame on those souls. Great Job...
Awesome man got a projector myself only my walls arent vertical so its a pain in this house. I will get a setup like this in the future already got the beamer so and this looks very good
Thanks! I made the frame with your instructions. It turned out very good. Now only thing I am confused about is cutting the hanging wood at 45 degrees angle. I don’t have a table saw. Do you have any suggestions for that?
How did you set the sound? I'm about to build a 100 inch thing, my main issue is to put the 5.1 there without too many running wires... That's not too easy...
Thank you for your video. My screen material is coming to me today from Carl’s place. Can I please ask what is the exact material you used for the frame itself? Thank you again!
Nice, if you have all these tools.. Mine, in the amount of $124.99 I bought 120" roll screen at Staples included the metal standing. I did not use the metal stand instead I hooked the roll screen in the wall and if I need it, I just full down the screen.. and for the metal stand I can still use for outside if I need it with the roll screen.
I am looking for cordless drill that can drill woods, metal and wall and is the voltage important? coz i saw on the market has 9 v,12v,16,18v .. so the more volt means better?
Love your video I'm getting ready to make 140 inch screen . can I ask you a question where did you find that Kreg clamp ? I can't find one like that the newer ones don't open as wide.
Wanted to say great job! ^^ Wish you had uploaded your DIY guide earlier , built my screen in April and could've really used your handy tips! So far quite happy with the finished product, though only 90'', it offers quite an immersive experience over the old flat tv I had. I chose Carl's Flexigray for deeper blacks and 2'' velvet tape for borders. True that, the tape does shrink! At first I thought I was losing my mind as I could've sworn, when I installed it, it was slightly overlapping. Used the same on-wall mounting mechanism, but instead of putting spacers in the corners, I just drove one 1x4 into the wall along the bottom edge. Happy family movie nights and +1 sub from me. Cheers!
In stretching the screen id recommend starting by tacking the middle of each side, and then do each corner. After those eight points are fixed go down each side.
For everyone that's asking: Material, Tool & Cut List For: 100", 120", 135", 144" and 150" Screens & Step by step Guide w/over (50) gifs and images to help you build it yourself! diywithrick.gumroad.com/l/DIY-projector-screen
In the video, why didnt you extend the longest boards (top/bottom) to the actual length? The length is fine the way you did, as you include the width of the outside vertical boards as part of lenth. But the height of the outer boards could have been same as the inner vertical boards. Therefor you would only need 2 sizes (verticals and horizontals) of wood instead of 3 (horizontals, ends, middles). Is it less stable with 2 sizes?
Quick question, does Carl's 3" tape still stick? I've heard of others using tape and eventually it falls off.. This is exactly what I need to do at home. I have a similar size screen required, bought the material for my screen almost two years ago and have yet to finally make my screen. Excellent video.
Hey Stingrr thanks! The tape sticks very well. It's been about five months and so far I havn't had any issues. Just be sure not to stretch the tape while you're attaching it to the screen as I mentioned in the video. Hope that helps and best of luck with your upcoming screen build!
2 minutes in the video I completely forgot what is it about cause this is so chill to listen to, man do some podcasts, I love your voice with the background relax music #nohomo
Hey Rick, great video BTW! Got a few questions as I am planning on building my own screen. I am a bit nervous. 1. What size screws did you use for your 1x4s, and what type of wood is that? 2. I see some people place horizontal boards in and some out. Yours are in. Is there a correct way or does it makes any difference in measurement? 3. My diagonal screen will be 126 inches (110 width, 62 inch Height). I am planning on adding 3 inch felt borders. When I add 6 inches to the width, my diagonal measurement changes to 133 inches. Am I calculating this right? Thanks in advance!
I am a new diyer that suffers from arm pain due to spine injury. but i struggle through. you inspired me with this video. i am not able to find the right size for my projector screen at a decent price. need a 16:10 133". I am going to build this.

Never seen someone get this emotionally connected over a Projector Screen project
Projector screens... They just sorta speak to me yenno
that's the nicest thing anyone on youtube has ever said to me alex. thanks for that!
Champion build!!

Thank you for the step by step guide. I did essentially everything you did, including picking up the baby Kreg Jig and it turned out great! I cannot thank you enough, this is by far the best guide I came across on TH-cam. Continue doing what you're doing... You're good at it.
Two questions, how hard were the corners? How important are straight 1x4s?
It's soothing to watch this. It seems to be the combination between chill music and straight forward working, do this, do that, step by step and everything gives you results. Appreciate it
thanks for the kind words mindhook!

Hi, really cool stuff. Could you give a wood blocks size. Thanks
The commentary was top notch. Definitely pushing me towards DIY.

Man, I was literally just thinking that I hadn't seen any DIYwithRick videos in a while, glad to see you're still up and about doing your thing.
sick kids, traveling wife! been a rough few months!
Makes sense. I hope everyone's feeling better.
thanks michael really appreciate that man! they're on the upswing thankfully!
Beautiful screen, man. Nice work!
thanks bill!
Esta de maravilla de cuantas pulgadas es tu pantalla amigo?

I followed this video to make my 194" diagonal screen (170" x95") with 1"x3"x8" pine boards frame and Carl's Projector screen material. It's amazing.
Glad to see that you and the project manager could work together on this one. The final product looks fantastic, just don't tell her about the wood glue on the carpet ;)
haha!
How do you decide what size screen to make for a room, what factors do you need to think about and what type of projector would you recommend.
Added this to my favorites for when I get my next house. You left just enough room for some nice Floorstanders on each side.
Hi great work. What projector did you use?
Love this video, definitely a big helper in making me decide to have a go at my own.
Can I ask - why did you have the cleat sat on top the frame, rather than sat "in" the frame, lets say flush between the 2 uprights ? (Thats how I plan to do mine so was wondering if maybe its a bad decision as clearly you know wood a LOT better than I do !!)

Sweet setup! That screen's hugeee! Now if you get some 4K blurays you'll have that genuine 35mm quality
Very nice what is the name of black tape at side?
I'm wondering who will give a thumbs down for this hard work put into building his projector. What brought them on the page?

Awesome man got a projector myself only my walls arent vertical so its a pain in this house. I will get a setup like this in the future already got the beamer so and this looks very good
I know this video is old and I'm late to the party, but that was an outstanding job.
Love your attention to detail! You just convinced me to DIY!!!!
Tackled my project yesterday, drew a lot of inspiration from this video. Thank you! Turned out great!
Thanks! I made the frame with your instructions. It turned out very good. Now only thing I am confused about is cutting the hanging wood at 45 degrees angle. I don’t have a table saw. Do you have any suggestions for that?
Circular saw or you can just buy multiple metal cleats
How did you set the sound? I'm about to build a 100 inch thing, my main issue is to put the 5.1 there without too many running wires... That's not too easy...
Thank you for your video. My screen material is coming to me today from Carl’s place. Can I please ask what is the exact material you used for the frame itself? Thank you again!

That's awesome, what is this projector???
Hi what kind of paint color did you use for the wall ? Great video btw 😍
Awesome editing. Would this work on a white wall?
Hi Rick...very good job..i think it's a real pleasure now for you to watch your movies....! Excellent
Love your video I'm getting ready to make 140 inch screen .
can I ask you a question where did you find that Kreg clamp ? I can't find one like that the newer ones don't open as wide.
HMM you're right they changed it and I can't find the original...I'll keep you posted if I find the old one Dave.
I see you linked in the projector and ceiling unit, what type of surround sound system do you use and what is the system you play ur dvds on? Thanks
Thanks for the video and the write-up as well! Forgive me if I missed it somewhere, but what kind of wood did you use?
for the corners of the screen material, would cutting a diagonal slit and then folding each 'angled flap over each other work better?
Yes I believe you're right Ahmed! It was my first attempt so I'll def use this method next time!
Good job buddy.
Just curious, where did you brought the screen, any specific name.
Thanks dude.
Love your playfulness and "imperfections". Kudos, guys!
NO ADS! It has been so long since I have seen a TH-cam video without ads, it felt like something was missing.
hope you enjoyed the vid!
Killing it man. Congrats on another awesome build video
thanks uncle jessy! appreciate it man!
With what name can I find the material of the white screen, is it resistant to water and sun? thanks
Wanted to say great job! ^^ Wish you had uploaded your DIY guide earlier , built my screen in April and could've really used your handy tips! So far quite happy with the finished product, though only 90'', it offers quite an immersive experience over the old flat tv I had. I chose Carl's Flexigray for deeper blacks and 2'' velvet tape for borders. True that, the tape does shrink! At first I thought I was losing my mind as I could've sworn, when I installed it, it was slightly overlapping. Used the same on-wall mounting mechanism, but instead of putting spacers in the corners, I just drove one 1x4 into the wall along the bottom edge. Happy family movie nights and +1 sub from me. Cheers!
Great! Only one question, this is the "1:69 / 86x153 / 175 in / Rolled" option in the Amazon link? Thanks
Hanging the screen like a canvas painting! I like this idea! I might use this idea!
I would have given you the thumbs up for this video but I can't because I've already done it last year lol, I loved it
grest job man. I am using portable pull up screen and just bought Ikea tupplur blind to hang and make it easy :)
nice!!
In stretching the screen id recommend starting by tacking the middle of each side, and then do each corner. After those eight points are fixed go down each side.
without the spacers, do you think it would have been easier to get the ripples out?
Great video. I want to try this!!. Could you share where you got the screen material from?
I just saw the link, so never mind - THanks
Might be my question is silly but what's the reason of black border? which projector are you using?
This is the first video I saw from you. Your explanation is very easy.You got a new sub :)
thanks mathijs! appreciate the support!
DIYwithRick how many inch is tha and what cant the projector is good and sheep 800 dollar minimum
Hi DIYwithRick Could you disclose to us more about the specs of the boards?
Best screen build I've seen. Bravo.
This was amazing. Great to see someone interesting and funny doing DIY videos. Subscribed immediately. Great work man!
thanks brodie!
Amazing job man. How's the screen holding up? I wouldn't mind challenging myself to do this.

Hey that wasn't Star Wars !!!!!!!!
Hi, buddy, good video. we are professional manufacture of projector, any interest, pls let me know: www.salange.com
Quick question, does Carl's 3" tape still stick? I've heard of others using tape and eventually it falls off.. This is exactly what I need to do at home. I have a similar size screen required, bought the material for my screen almost two years ago and have yet to finally make my screen. Excellent video.
Hey Stingrr thanks! The tape sticks very well. It's been about five months and so far I havn't had any issues. Just be sure not to stretch the tape while you're attaching it to the screen as I mentioned in the video. Hope that helps and best of luck with your upcoming screen build!
what is that type of material that you used for the screen bro..??
What projector are you using?
Cost?
Steen size of your home theater please.
hi can you tell the name of the staple gun and the size of staples used.
Good job. Looks professional
2 minutes in the video I completely forgot what is it about cause this is so chill to listen to, man do some podcasts, I love your voice with the background relax music #nohomo
haha glad to hear man! appreciate the kind words!
Sooo much better than my build. Wish this vid was available then. Oh well. Great job!
Hii, Nice work, which projector??
loved that cheeky ending. Maybe use some felt as a buffer for your buffers so you don't scratch up your wall.
Hey Rick, great video BTW! Got a few questions as I am planning on building my own screen. I am a bit nervous.
1. What size screws did you use for your 1x4s, and what type of wood is that?
2. I see some people place horizontal boards in and some out. Yours are in. Is there a correct way or does it makes any difference in measurement?
3. My diagonal screen will be 126 inches (110 width, 62 inch Height). I am planning on adding 3 inch felt borders. When I add 6 inches to the width, my diagonal measurement changes to 133 inches. Am I calculating this right? Thanks in advance!
What is the type of fabric/material used for the screen?
I am a new diyer that suffers from arm pain due to spine injury. but i struggle through. you inspired me with this video. i am not able to find the right size for my projector screen at a decent price. need a 16:10 133". I am going to build this.
Awesome to hear thanks reaching out. Best of luck on the build Mo! Let me know how it goes!
wouldn't the wooden frame become unflatten over time? like some canvas wall arts do?
Quick question if I may? How much do you think it would cost to build a Screen that's between 175''-200'', or even 250''????
hahaha.. so like the ending part..
star wars dvd but came out dirty dancing..lolx😂😂😂
I was wondering "wow, what scene is that?!" then it hit me. lol
Well... next project is an automatic disc sorting machine. It'll put the discs into the correct cases....
Sweet video, nice build, simple and professional...and the victory jump at the end,?... like a cherry on a sundae brah
Cracked wood everywhere at around 4:20, did you predrill everything?
bits weren't long enough!
Impressive!!! Nice your wife is supportive. What size is that screen and do you have a standard throw projector?
And then what happened what happens and if you put it in your back garden and you put the jetscreen bit further back into big too big for that
Nice video Sir.. Love from India🇮🇳
Fantastic job!
You could save people a lot of money. Start your own business doing that and train others to do the labor. That's awesome 👍
