Rear screen

[cyclops39]

Hi:
Does anybody know of a supplier for rear screen material? Or how to make your own?
THANKS

For large screens, try:

For cheaper, 20x30 or 30x40 inch screens or smaller, go to a drafting repro place (they make blueprint reproductions) and ask for some mylar copies of nothing. Sounds funny, but that's what they'll have to do. They will run a piece of treated mylar through a roller machine that will expose it to ultraviolet light and ammonia vapors. What you get back is a perfect piece of rear screen material. You can also see if they have any large sheets of drafting mylar. It's the same thing but without all the hassle of the ammonia and processing. The thing is that I always found the blank mylar copy to be cheaper than the drafting mylar since they will sell a single copy but with drafting mylar you generally have to buy like a 50-100 sheet pack!

Anyway, hope this helps!
