Re: Acer P1500 to start with

I just played around a bit with it today and used a piece of paper to test the project on low distances. I'm quite thrilled that i could go as near as around 10-12cm from the front of the projector and still get a crispy sharp image. I think around 20cm will be my final projection distance for now. ...

Re: Acer P1500 to start with

Thanks for your feedback, guys. You're right - the P1500 is just a renamed H6510BD - the latter is sold as the white model here in germany, the black one is the P1500 and is (at least at amazon) a few bucks cheaper.

Re: Looking for controller implementation

Maybe it would have been a good idea to post this in the software section. There's a subforum for Creation workshop which i guess you are referring to :)

Re: Trying to get stuff together

Thanks, Anderson, for your detailled explanation - that is highly valuable. I'm glad i got the PTFE-Stuff right - took me a while to get behind that ;-) I will scan the market for clear PTFE films in germany/europe and see what i can get. I'll post suggestions here later on. The difficulty in genera...

Trying to get stuff together

Hi, as i said in my introduction i'm completely new to SLA/DLP so i try to sum up a bit what i've read so far and partly combined myself and hope you can correct me if i'm wrong.
