    Screen(s) arrived today, put them up.

    Flatscreen also on wall.
    I have some cable tidying to do with trunking and the frame padding, as well as mounting the projector on the ceiling left to do.

    I have hit into these screens - I have two back to back - and there is zero bounceback with irons and about a foot with a driver. Very low noise.
    They are actually cheaper screens - £170 each bought from Collins Nets. I'll see how they stand up over time and what the image looks like from the projector.
    IF I need to I will add a third HD screen in front.

      Build has been complete for a couple of months (although tweaking will be an ongoing exercise ).

        How has the two screen system worked? Did you add a third screen?

          Two screens has worked great.
          At the bottom of the first screen there is some sand filled tubing slotted into the fold at the bottom.
          As yet I have not added a 3rd higher quality screen. The image I am getting on the c£150 screens is excellent even with the lights on.(the ceiling lights are on in the pictures above).
          Bounceback is minimal
          Wedges do roll up but hit the frame ceiling.

            Did you put any space between the two screens?

            Is it essentially a double thick screen or a screen - space - screen ?

              No space between the screens.
