Home made projector
The days are long, we crave to go to the movie theater but can’t because of the lock-down ,so what shall we do? Let’s bring theater home, not by buying it from the market but by creating it with our own hands.. Today, we will learn to make our own projector, so that we can watch movies in theater style. Let’s start.
Things that you will need – Shoe box, Cutter and scissors, Magnifying glass, Cello tape and your favorite movie.
Step 1: Making the Lens
Take your magnifying glass and take out the glass from it. (I had to unscrew mine from the base)
Center the glass on the front of the rectangular box that you have gathered.
Make an outline of the glass on the box.
- Using the box cutter, cut the outlined circle out. (You should have a circular hole on the front of your rectangular box)
5. Put your magnifying glass into the hole that you just made. To prevent it from falling, hold it in place with your hands for now.
Take your hot glue gun and apply the glue to where the glass and cardboard touch. (Be careful to not put glue on the lens! This can affect the projection quality)
Step 2: Making the Phone Holder
Take your ruler and measure the width of your rectangular box. (The width of mine is 6 3/8 inches) (Make sure to write this down on a piece of paper so that you may remember the measurements when making this with the cardboard)
This time, using the ruler, measure the height of a rectangular box. (The height of the box was 4 3/4 inches, but I chose to make the height of the phone holder 4 inches) (Make sure to write your measurement on a piece of paper so that you may remember the measurements when making this with the cardboard)
3. To make the back support for the phone holder, use your height and width to make a rectangle. (I decided to shorten (My rectangle was 4 inches by 6 3/8 inches)
4. To make the bottom support for the phone holder, use the measurement of the width, and for the height of the rectangle, divide the height of your back support rectangle by 2. This will be your height for the bottom support. (My rectangle was 2 inches by 6 3/8 inches)
5. Cut the rectangles out by following the outline of the rectangles that you have drawn.
6. Take your hot glue gun and attach the two rectangles, the longest sides touching each other.
7. Make sure the two rectangles together, form a right angle when looking at it from the side.
Step 4: How to Use the Projector
- Take your phone holder and lay it down on a flat surface
- Tape your phone down at the center of the holder. (Try to tape down the edges of the phone to the holder)
- Open the video, photo, or movie that you want to project.
- Hold the phone holder with the phone attached to it, upside down. (The photo, video, or movie should flip its view)
5. To lock your screen, (on an IOS device) swipe up from the bottom edge of the phone and click the Portrait Orientation Lock and if it is on, it should turn red-orange.
6. On that same screen, make sure your phone is at its highest setting.
7. Now, insert your phone holder into the projector body (making sure that the photo, video, or movie is still upside down)
8. Enter a dark room and play your photo, video, or movie
9. If the projection is blurry, focus it by moving the phone holder either backwards or forwards
