    Theater = a tiny little projector from Amazon. I have used the crap out of it and the fan is starting to make noise when it is cold outside. The AL angle worked perfectly for the top. It is all held together with VHB tape, hopes and dreams. I made the composite panels myself. . .

    Curbside all cut out and ready to install. The hatch, window, and door aren't mounted. They make the wall heavier than it needs to be to put in place.
