Biscuits and gravy...I mean glue

Started the construction of the frame and base last night. Went to Home Depot to get 3 1x6x6 for the frame. With help from my dad we were able to cut the wood in half using his table saw and using the dimensions of the plexiglass, where able to make a frame that would cover the rails. Each piece is 51"x 27", giving an extra inch and a half around the plexiglass.


Here's both of them together


The goal is to sandwich the rails/plexiglass combination between the frames. To make sure the window doesn't move, wood blockers will be put into place. The whole thing will most likely be screwed together on the corners and where the blockers are.

The next step after that (will be worked on Thursday) will be to create the base, which will be just legs and a rectangular top, with the same dimensions as the frame, to hold it all together. Also it will need to be able to hold a mirror to bounce the projection onto the screen.
