    Hey Yonchai ! I've been playing squash for 15 years and now only twice a week ! It's my second addiction. Do you have a squash court at your home ? That would be my double dream in one ! You have to tighten the tarp with bungees somehow or get a wrinkle-free screen. The pvc looks great. How big is the setup

      Can you post a pic with the projected image on the tarp. Curious to know how it looks. And looks like flop shots would hit above the tarp.

        And skulled shots will bounce off the wall below the tarp...

          Squash was my dad's hobby, but he's got a bum leg now so we converted it to a golf sim room. PVC frame dimension was 3.4m high by 6m wide. I put in some netting at the bottom to collect skulled shots and i didn't go higher than a pitching wedge. That was my first attempt. I had put some insulation foam sandwiched inside the tarp but it fell down after repeated hits and caused the bottom to bulge. So on our second try, we decided to try a more professional setup and installed angle irons. Used the same tarp as before but removed the insulation. Bought some bedsheets to drap over the tarp and picture shows my second attempt. Will do a third attempt with proper screen, but its still stuck in customs limbo for 3+ months
