I think you guys might like this. I made a Projector using a old classroom projector and a 15 inch TFT screen from an old monitor I never used. The outcome was this...

Very nice. What would somebody need in order to do that themselves?

I got the old monitor a long time ago.. the Projector I got on Ebay for like 40 bucks.

That's the tutorial on how to do it.

Hardest part really is taking apart the monitor. I had to use a drimel to take it apart in some areas because the screws were monkey torqued into the monitor, and where so small that I couldn't get enough torque on my jewelers set.
