My friend Matt (http://mcconnellstudios.com/) and I are building our own projectors... here's what was put together after a weekend of talking about the pros and cons to building one of these and what the best approaches would be to making one.
Standard, 15" vertical throw DIY projector, 3/4" cabinet grade plywood, scraps around the house, items from Lumenlab, goldmine-elec.com, allelectronics.com and Home Depot/Lowes.
These must have been pretty well made. I don't know how old it is, but I assume it is from at least the 70's and it still works.
Projector in the projection room at Dreamland cinema. Building is closed now, but largely intact inside. Hopefully be repaired and reopened sometime soon.
All but the largest pieces of the projector were cut out using a router on the WSU Robotics Club's CNC machine. Everything was designed in a CAD program first, and then perfectly cut by the machine. This made fitting all of the projector's pieces together a relatively straight-forward task.
This rustic projector was photographed in a light tent with a 50mm (100mm equivalent ) macro lens. The image was processed as a 5-shot HDR with NIK HDR software. The final image was color tinted in Photoshop.

The projector climbs pair of tracks to position itself for the screen, then lowers to floor level for reloading.
Just a bulletin board covered in a white sheet. The projector looks really dim, but it's just the way the lighting came through.
