Slanted Room Above Garage Help Needed

[morserya]

I know how I'm going to build the frame but I'm at a loss for.

1. How to make the screen. Carl's Place won't do any other cuts than square or rectangle. I was going to make a screen to fill the entire back. I still might do that and just figure out how to secure the top 2 corners.
2. How to wrap it.

Any advice?

If you need that shape couldn't you order a screen "raw" and cut it to fit yourself? Your frame construction will dictate the mounting method.

Yeah but then i have to sew it and i'm not doing that.

I thought I saw guys using raw screens with the bungee's with clips, like a chip clip. A few guys here, myself included, have bought or are looking to buy the high end raw screen for sale in this forum, I doubt those guys are sewing the edges. If you're looking for a finished edge take it to your local dry cleaner and have them edge it, most dry cleaners have a seamstress on site.

Just fold the corners behind it on the upper right and left and use a tarp clip to hold it in place. My Screen is 3 feet too long and I just folded it and tied it in place with the clips.

I have a similar setup. I ordered a raw screen. I plan on using the tarp clips and bungees that some other people have mentioned. I also ordered it a 2 ft wider than needed, so I can move it to the right as it wears out... That's the plan anyways.
I am still not sure about the frame. Was thinking about 3d printing some emt connectors as 45° connectors won't match the roofline. My roof is 9/12 slope.

Rent an EMT conduit hand bender and bend the angle yourself, IMO. Then you can just use straight couplings which are really inexpensive.

I'm not sure how you can project a decent image on a screen that is not square or a rectangle. You really only have about 6'0 wide and 8'6 high to project an image. I don't think you have enough room.

Ok how do I protect where the screen connects to the L brackets and how can I protect my slanted wall from shanks? The screen won't be flush with the wall because of the tarp clips however the side protection needs to overlap the screen and the wall angle is throwing another dynamic in there. I'm mostly concerned with the right side as I'll be close enough to the screen that I shouldn't hit the ceiling. I am worried about a shank going in that dormer space though and ricocheting.

I still don't understand how you could project a decent image on a screen shaped like this? You may be better off hitting into a net and projecting your image on a TV monitor on your wall next to you or an Ipad.

[Celeras]

It definitely looks like that with that width and ceiling slope you will at minimum need to offset yourself to the right in order to not hit the wall behind you on your follow-through.

There's no way I'd stand in the middle. And if that's the case I'd take the net approach as well. There's no point in trying to pad such a large portion of the useable hitting area.

I’m going to have it 108x81 inches it will be completely inside the wall there will be white space on top and sides
