Garage Smoking Setup

[mrtr33]

I plan on getting a projector and some real movie screen material, and making a small theater in my garage. XBOX and PS3, Sony projector mounted overhead, and 5.1 surround once I upgrade the one in the house.

I've got a projector and 5 channel sound out here on my FOB with a 12 foot screen, and every Wednesday night is movie night. The nights are getting colder here in the sandbox so I'm not sure how much longer we'll be doing them.

Kris,

When you say "real movie screen material" are you talking about the screen itself? I did the projector thing for years - it was great. I'm due for another projector now, and the current house (and budget) don't really support it. I still think they are a better buy than the large screen plasma tv's, although the upkeep on them (from what I remember) was expensive, in terms of buying replacement bulbs. My projector now is pretty good, and pretty bright. I have a beaded screen, and of course the surround sound. Love playing some Ghost Recon or Rainbow Six on the big screen. Anyways, I was just wondering about your setup. You also mentioned a 12 foot screen - that's corner to corner though, right?

I ride my bike about 220 to work and back about 2-3 times a week. it gets cold up here in the mid atlantic. But last night it only got down to a balmy 43 degrees before I got home. I can't touch the people who live in the frigid cold like Canada and Colorado (or even Iraq I know how cold the nights get over there) just saying it sounds like some people have a cold pussy.

The cold isn't a factor for me. Hell, the nights are just now getting bearable to BE outside (imagine an evening where it's 95 degrees and 90% humidity). Also, when it rains here, it's unlike the rain I've ever seen anywhere else. Not something I can really smoke outside during. I might not have a forest behind me, and it's illegal to have an open burning fire within city limits, but I make do with what I have. My garage doesn't have any insulation or a space heater outside.
