Materials:
-Old projector. (one that doesnt work, if you had one that works you wouldn’t be looking at this egg)
-Aluminum box with lid to access the inside, about 2 inches x 2 inches x 7 inches. (If you want to be cheap you may use cardboard.)
-Small square mirror 2 inches by 2 inches.
-Electrical tape
Construction:
Remove the lens tube and focus lens unit from the projector. Cut a round hole in the aluminum box at one end just big enough to fit the lens tube in.
At the top of the box on the opposite end as the lens tube hole, cut a square hole the same size or slightly larger than the iPod screen. Place the mirror 45 degrees to the box on the inside corner directly below the iPod screen hole. Glue in place. insert the lens tube from the projector into the appropriate hole and glue in place so not to interfere with the focus adjusting knob. Either tape the iPod face down to the box, with the control wheel overhanging, or Make a clip to hold it in place. (I taped mine). If there is any spaces that light can get into the box, tape over them with electrical tape.
Use:
Turn on the iPod. Place the projector as to face a wall or projector screen and adjust the focus until the image is clear. Attach computer speakers or better to the headphone jack for sound.
Note:
There is no real pictures for this egg because i have no clue how to put them up nor do i have photo bucket to access a URL for them. My apologies. And yes i realize that it is a little hard to access the control wheel, but i didn’t want to take apart my iPod to turn the screen over. This also works with iPod Nano’s.
Sep 10, 2008 7:46 pm - I’ve seen this for regular monitors before. The problem with an ipod screen is the resolution will be terrible if it gets to be the size of a projector screen. It’s an interesting idea but I don’t think it’s practical in this case. To be fair to you, I won’t rate it at this time.
Sep 11, 2008 8:30 pm - to first commenter. shut the fuck up, i will destroy you. and yes i saw it in popular science to cuz I SENT IT IN. the resolution admittedly is not perfect but hey it works.

Yea, ok, sure. Someone who types incoherently and has a display name of "BOOBIES" reads Popular Science and actually sends stuff in... Am I the only one here who finds this incredibly hard to believe?
Also, I would honestly like to know, how exactly are you going to "destroy" Redunkulas? Are you just that much of a bad ass?
Once again, I would like to point out something that destroys the validity of your claim. The egg is well written, with proper punctuation, spelling and capitialization. Your comments are poorly written, with poor spelling and grammar usage.
Explain to me how those two things match up? Granted, your little note at the end about the lack of pictures proves you did something on the egg. However, if you really want people to believe you did this, you should have put pictures in. You may not know how, but you could have easily asked any of the members here, or posted a forum topic in the General Q&A.
