Hmmmmm.....Interesting !!! I did a DIY..." First Light "....2008....YIKES....10 years ago....Holy SH$T !!
We have many, many more LD engines to choose from now !!! although....we are still LAMO on the Red line...
I would also throw in to advise on a DIY build. Yes...You can buy a relatively inexpensive RGB projector these days....But....a DIY....IF you have some tools and ability...is very, very satisfying !!
Go slow...and enjoy the ride...Always....make it bigger than you think you need !!! For....WHEN you add or modify ( And you WILL )...you have the room to do so. Although this will make your build...bigger...and heavier !!! So what !!
A DIY is a Labor of Luv....a learning experience...Not the ultimate compact design....with the perfect aesthetics !! It is a unique, one-of-a-kind....the only one like this....on the Planet !!! Revel in it's unique nature...it's individual character !...and learn, learn, learn...there in lies the real reward as you build from the ground up !!
