MCE DIY recycled projector stand
You can't buy this. Being new to the home theater scene, I didn't rush out and buy an expensive ceiling-mounted projector holder. Instead, I used a cast-off equipment rack I found leaning against a dumpster. I painted it to match my green wooden furniture. Then I added some chrome adhesive trim to dress it up. The rack is sturdy and is screwed to the floor with drywall screws. While this is not the most beautiful piece of furniture in the house, I made this stand for the cost of a can of spray paint! The projector is a Mitsubishi HD DLP unit which is secured upside-down for proper throw angle to the screen which is 12 feet away. The couch was recently upgraded with some bass shakers underneath. The 4 tactile transducers give a vibrating "feel" to each movie. The Woon bass shakers are driven by a Dayton 400-watt subwoofer amp. The amp was mounted in this rack, behind the couch, in a custom vented box, after this photo was taken.
