6.75x9 Projector Screen Frame Kit
Tubing Cut List and Assembly Instructions
Thank you for purchasing a projector screen frame kit from Carl’s Place! Included in this
document you will find all the information you should need to assemble your new projector
screen. Before proceeding, please read the following tips to help make the project go as
smoothly as possible:
• This kit requires twelve 10’ long 1” EMT tubes (electrical conduit). These can be found at
any building supply store and most hardware stores and lumber yards. Just ask for 1-inch
EMT and an employee there can direct you to the materials.
• When cutting the tubes to length, there are several tools that can be used. A hacksaw with
a metal-cutting blade works well but is not the fastest. A band saw, jig saw, or reciprocating
saw with a metal cutting blade will make things go a little faster, and a dedicated pipe cutter
will make the cleanest cuts. Please be careful with cut edges of EMT, as they can be very
sharp.
• The included fittings work by inserting a piece of EMT into them and tightening down the
eye-bolts. After getting them finger tight, a wrench or screwdriver can be used to further
tighten the joint. The eye-bolt will actually create a dent in the tube and hold it precisely in
place.
• The measurements shown on the tube cutting list assume that the tubes will be inserted 4”
into the fittings. It is highly recommended that you mark each end of each tube at 4” as a
reference to use while assembling the frame. After assembly is complete you may find you
need to adjust tubes in or out slightly to your liking. The 4” insertion allows for some
flexibility either way.
• Finally, do not leave your screen out in the wind unless it is sufficiently anchored to the
ground! A projector screen can catch a large amount of wind and as such can easily
produce a lot of damage if not anchored well.
