Re: Question about collimated display systems.
Thanks guys. While not "new" technology, it's not exactly simple either. Your average jigsaw jockey is not going to build one of these any time soon. The parts that make up the framework have to be very, very, very accurately cut.
Now if you guys think THAT was cool, wait till you see what we do next. DD

Re: Question about collimated display systems.
First application of vacuum. We weren't sure what was going to happen; we were all pleasantly surprised.

Display in use. Notice that as the camera is moved, the image stays still, WAY off in the distance.

*raises hand* Who's Gery? *laughs*
BTW, when all the leaks were sealed, the mirror did properly form a spherical section! I used a Fein Turbo III dust collector for the vacuum source.
