Introduction: Custom Projector Mount
I watch movies and television shows on my projector, but I wanted to get it off the table and out of the way. Using scrap materials I built this stylish and highly adjustable mount in an afternoon.
Step 1: Tools and Materials
Tools:
Portable Bandsaw
Grinder (bench or angle)
Drill Press
Materials:
Various bits of angle, plate and channel, all in hot rolled steel.
Miscellaneous 1/4-20 hardware
Turnbuckle
Hardware to attach the projector to the mount- I used M3 screws.
Step 2: Cutting the Material
Using whatever was on hand, I cut the material and ground all the edges smooth.
Step 3: Weld It Together
I used a TIG welder, but you can use whatever is available and you feel comfortable with.
Step 4: Mount It
I used two existing 3/4" studs that were protruding from the beam in my living room.
