I am looking for something similar to this :

But don't think I can justify the price at present. Does anyone know of any suppliers

<Nigel mode on>
My cousin is very good at making things with material especially curtains, dresses etc. I don't know whether to try this or if it would be a waste of money as the material is not cheap.

Alternatively if anyone has any other suggestions please fire away. I don't really want to spend too much as I can envisage myself going for a couple of large screen tv's instead for most venues in the future.

Cheers

It needs to be made with special material designed for projection purposes so it doesnt cause glare. I have seen people before using white bed sheets to project onto but apparently its not good for the eyes if the special stuff isnt used.

It's not the screen I am after but the surround.

Dont think your gonna get one cheap pal. Do you know any theatres in the area that can point you in the direction of their curtain makers, or even a blind & curtain specialist that can make to order.

Any pro that works with curtains could pleat exactly to specification, and you get more choice over the material/colour. Then theres the whole framework...... (can you weld?....)

Sorry not much help really. :)

At least 5 listed on ebay at the moment, all at a very reasonable price.

I have seen them but the main reason for looking for other suppliers is I have 3 different size / makes of screen and wondered if anyone was to make one if I could adapt to fit.

Cheers anyway, TBH it's a long shot as a couple of large lcd's are looking the better option and I am as tight as a ducks bottom :D :D
