    Enclosure for large space

    I’ve got the opposite problem to most others. My space is way to large for a simulator. I need to figure out a solution that allows me to hang projector, lighting, and EYEXO in a 50ft by 80ft shop with 20ft ceilings. The EYEXO needs to be mounted ahead of the hitting area and the projector needs to be mounted above or behind the hitting area. Having trouble getting my head wrapped around this one. Because of the size I have to work with I’d like to go with a 16ft wide screen to accommodate righties and lefties. Any ideas?

    Build yourself a little mezzanine on one side of the building and turn the lower section into a smaller room, then use your new lowered ceiling to mount everything

    You could also use the building as is with long telescopic mounts for eyexo and projector (such as the ones used in warehouses and supermarkets), there's also enclosures with built in mounts for projector and launch monitors such as the flexcage https://vimeo.com/339108420 ... You could rig something similar yourself with all the info that is available in this forum

    What kind of 'shop' is it, photos ?

      With that kind of space, I would second the mezzanine idea, gives you lots of storage space underneath be just losing it with that kind of height

        I think you can just build or buy a large enclosure. The EYEXO and projector will mount directly to the enclosure. Carl's has enclosures up to 15 feet in length. You can buy a frame mount for the projector and the EYEXO.

          I would love the mezzanine idea, but it would have to be 80ft wide and block 2 bay doors to go where I would like.
          I priced out putting up walls and a mezz, it was over $20k with the price of lumber, I'm thinking 15ft enclosure as suggested. Thanks
          now I need to find a lcd or laser projector to throw a 15ft wide image at 10-15ft away.

            My screen is over 15 feet wide and I am using the BenQ 4K laser Projector, LK953ST. So far, it is awesome. Very flexible with placement due to big vertical and horizontal lens shifts. My throw distance was 13'4'' to 14'6''.
