I may paint the shrouds black, can you give me a closeup of the side of your shroud where the projector shows?
It's really hard to get a good picture because the lens reflects everything but I did the best I could. Honestly with the shroud painted black and the bucket painted black you can't really see the projector body. When I put everything together the most visible part was the screws. I colored them black with a sharpie and they blend in. I'm very **** about shortcuts being taken and I'm not the least bit unhappy with my decision to not make shroud extensions. Honestly they would have been more trouble than they were worth IMO.

I got a small sheet of aluminum laying around and will probably paint it black and cover up the pj body. The panameras really show the pj through the cracks.

That's so true.. My projectors are also black, and I can't get a picture that shows everything/doesn't have my reflection in it.. Best I can ever do
