This example of DIY projector serves to point out some 'tricks of the trade' rather than to provide a definitive solution to stereo projector construction.   The Leitz P150 Figure 1.was chosen on a cost basis and the decision was somewhat misguided as we shall discover in the text to follow.  However, I have now got a projector that is light in weight, quiet and cool running.

New housing construction.

Modifying donated parts.

Cooling problems.

Making and obtaining additional parts.
