Steve Lodefink has posted the results of his opaque projector build, using the giant lens he got from American Science & Surplus (see previous post below). The results are beautiful. Love the Plasticote wrinkle paint, the BelAir logo, and the Fender amp power jewel.

    did the surplus place sell out of the huge lenses?
    the link you have just goes to the general optics page and i did not see the huge lense, although about a month ago the link went right to it.
