As one of my past colleagues in Germany used to say, "Slow work takes time..."
I suppose it doesn't really translate all that well from the German... maybe it's funnier auf Deutsche...
Regardless, a big shout out to KevinD who set me up with a good deal and direct shipping on a Screen Innovations 7 series fixed screen with Black Diamond Screen material at 1.4 gain.
When I got the lease on this apartment, it occurred to me that since I don't watch broadcast TV (unlike GF who passed) I can go back to my evil bachelor ways and go front projection again. Even my daughter laughed heartily over the mutual memories when I offered to invite her and the rest of the family up to watch the "Back to the Future" trilogy all over again, but on Blu-Ray instead of Laser Disk or DVD... (any of you guys remember Laser Disk?)
Everything was nicely packed in one box; heavy foam stabilizers at each end of the box, and the tube for which the actual screen material was wrapped around had the frame components inside.
The manual has lots of drawing but not many words; this works for a lot of people, but I wouldn't have minded more words...
The hardware box includes gloves for handling the screen and the "bungees" for tensioning it as well as the required Allen head tools for the assembly braces and some spare parts, just in case...
