2: Prepare the boxes:
Until the magnifying paper and the Shurtape, arrives, find a big box, with dimensions bigger than the magnifying paper.
Once, the items arrive, measure the box with respect to the plastic magnifier, and cut in the manner shown in the image below.
Try to cut the box, clean as you can. After cutting the box, then it comes to use black tape to further clean the box. Use tape to cover the entire area of the box, So, that each corner of the box should become black just like in the picture shown below.
Besides, also place the magnifying plastic in the inner side of the box, properly.
And finally, your projector is ready to use. Now, you can project the laptop screen on the wall without the projector. Moreover, you can also use a tablet and a mobile phone. But, we recommend you to use a tablet, because, due to the size of the tablet, you can enjoy a better picture.
Furthermore, if you have a projection, screen already, that’s good, but if you don’t have any problems. Creating a projection screen is much easier than creating a projector.
3: Create a projection screen:
To create a projection screen, take big enough white paper, that to show a bigger screen clearly. And just cover the borders of the paper with black tape.
Moreover, also use tape to attach the paper at a particular height on the wall.
And done!
The projection screen is ready to use.
4: Place the table in the box and enjoy your movie:
In the final step, you need to find a box smaller than your tablet and fit the tablet at one side of the box with the rubber band, so, that the tablet stays at its position firmly.
Then just enter the tablet into the projector, created recently.
And hurrah!
