Anyone else have a short throw projector setup from the ground? If so I would like to see some images/of setup and what casing you have used?

Floor mounted short throw projector setup?

My setup is in my garage and I am using a Optoma GT1080 Darbee projector in a All Sports Terrashield enclosure. I did modify the enclosure by adding four leveling feet so I can fit the image to the screen a little better since my garage floor is not quite level where I need to place the projector. Once in awhile my son or I hit a worm burner that hits the back of the enclosure before the screen but it has done a good job of protecting everything. It has worked out quite well for me. I can take it down and the screen folds up on the ceiling so I can still fit both cars in the garage when done.

The_Wheel Wow, you hit right over the top of that? With driver and 3W, too? Why are there no ball marks on your ceiling... maybe you have a sheetrock guy on speed dial? :P
I strongly recommend mounting projectors on the ceiling if at all possible, and only recommend floor mounts if you're hitting offset to the screen and can have the projector between your feet and the center of the screen, instead of between the ball and the screen.- Ron at GunghoGolf.com - we specialize in TrackMan, FlightScope, Foresight, Uneekor, SkyTrak, Garmin, Bushnell, TGC, and E6 Connect. 512-861-4151 or email hello AT gunghogolf.com.

I have the Terrashield as well but with the offset setup. Didn't want to risk hitting it.1 Photo

Nice setup! How far is your projector from the screen?
