Hi! From Rochester NY.

I'm just a beginner and at 77 yrs too! I've invested in a Flight Scope Mevo+ and made a frame for my 8' x 10' screen with EMT Conduit and Makerpipe.com fittings. I'm using an older Ipad mini and a BENQ projector. Problem is no hdmi terminals on the Ipad, so I mirrored that to an Mac Airbook. I had problems with linking the MEVO to my Ipad, until I moved away from the Mac, then it connected just fine. (What a pain that was.) In this pic, sorry but I haven't squared up the image from the ceiling mounted BENQ, but it works fine.

Enjoy your set-up - makes the winter pass by easier indeed. I might recommend some padding up on the right side over your windows. That net will deflect somewhat and you don't want to crack the window in mid Feb!

Have fun. Looks great. Yes be careful of the window.

I have an electric window drape track, so I can easily pull the drapes across which should give me plenty of protection, and it will darken the room somewhat too. I'm not sure about my Flight Scope Mevo+ mounting being correct, as the hitting mat is raised a little. It also moves on the Home Depot carpet.

I'm not sure if I should cut the carpet to drop the mat in and make it more level. I moved the putting green to a different area as it isn't involved with the simulator.

I'm also thinking I should redo my frame and use this DIY kit from Carls Place
It looks like it would eliminate the bottom front rail in my feeble design. I can't see how the bottom of the screen would be attached to anything. I guess it just hangs loose?

I wish I'd known about this before I started this project!

Welcome to the party! I am on Sim 3.0 with many iterations along the way. And I am - by far - not leading the tinkering or upgrade pack! What else are we gonna do in those long northern winters? 😎
