Once in a while a hack comes along which is a cut above the rest, this particular construction by Brett Fisher is a fine example

Its a DIY Projector and a home meda center all built into a coffee table.  The unit not only projects a bright, clear, and in focus image onto a huge screen, but it also displays on a 7&quot; Touch Screen LCD so it can be used as a standalone media center  
The whole unit looks extremely professional and you can tell a lot of time has gone into making it.  The top of the finished table glows blue and also features a pull out keyboard.

He has used the backlight from the LCD panel used for the projection system to illuminate the keyboard area, no parts wasted here!  
The cooling system within this unit is set to auto-cool down meaning you can just switch the projector off and forget about it, it will keep powering the fans for a set amount of time allowing everything to cool down.

This is a great example of a home-built DIY Projector, it is all in one and would be perfect for a games room.  The advantages of building the projector in a large case is the amount of room it gives you to work with.  Cooling is a lot easier as everything is not as crammed in, ventilation holes are not as much of a problem and fan noise is kept to a minimum.

Making the unit also function as a coffee table is also a great way to make a projector living room friendly!
