Tonight I had a bug to go and find out some more information on the pocket projectors that are just about to hit the market. I find this to be significant for many reasons.

Anyways are some pictures of the (mostly) finished product.

The second picture is the higher res picture. This one was taken with my camera. Also I will get a picture of the fireplace BEFORE the rock went on it. I know that I have one somewhere.
