Re: Batsignal tutorial
not that great gotta get close to the wall I think I will put some spacers between the plexiglass and the bat like the TDK bat signal to see if that helps.

Re: Batsignal tutorial
Looks great. I've been mulling over a project like this for years, just haven't gotten around to it. I even had an old projection TV (not rear projection, the kind that gets projected on a wall or screen) lense here (I might have finally tossed it last year, I have to check) for the project. You "might" try using a brighter light, perhaps a halogen, to get it to shine better on the wall. There are some REAL powerful flashlights and work lights out there that might work.
Again, not to put down what you have in any way. It looks fantastic. :up :up :up

Re: Batsignal tutorial
I thought about using a halogen light but I was worried that it would get too hot and melt the tub
