Today in the shop we are making a custom case to house our new projector, the Cosmos Max, from Nebula.
After working through the design and measurements with Devon, I cut and assembled the case from half inch plywood. I use a pneumatic finish nailer and wood glue to make all of my connections. The box is designed in two parts. The bottom has two shelves. The bottom holds the foldable screen, remote, and other items that you can store in the removable basket. The top shelf holds the projector power adapter, the surge protector, and the modified retractable extension cord reel. The Cosmos Max sits on top of those two shelves, secured by a mounted tripod head, giving it full range of motion.
The top slides down over the bottom completely and is latched to the base. Four legs were added to the bottom to give it a bit more height and to raise it up off the ground, in the event of an outdoor screening. I added the remaining hardware, and Devon took it back to his place to add some fun movie reel designs and paint it.
We finished the video with a movie night to test it out. We had a great time and are very happy with the "Theater in a Box" and love the Cosmos Max.
A huge thanks goes to Nebula, who was super generous in sending us the 4K Cosmos Max. This is a really nice projector, and so easy to set up and use. If you are interested in getting a Cosmos Max in 4K or 1080p of your own, follow the links and deal codes below.

There is nothing better than having quality time with the whole family watching home movies. We still have the old reel to reel projector from grandparents, watching black & white movies. It always create a special kind of atmosphere, a feel of content & love. Cheers mate. A fan from C.I.
Cheers! Love a good movie night. Back to it soon.
Great idea! 👍 Cheers 🍻
Looks awesome!
Drive in theater in a box! Nicely done.
hi Dustin, just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me to refurbish an old axe i had lying around - i shaped the handle using only hand tools amd turned out pretty decent (for a first try haha). couldn't find you on the socials, so here you go!
Thanks Daniel! Send pics to theartofcraftsmanship@gmail.com
Cool. I wonder how many years of digital cinema it will take till someone comes up with a new symbol just half as iconic as the good old film-reel.
Really nice Dustin!! All an idea for a nice device. It will be sure a great family entertainment. Congratulations budy. A great hug for you. Greetings a lot.
Thanks brother.
Watched Jurassic Park last night. Lol good job. I just got a mini projector and was thinking of something similar.
Very cool!! Love your channel! One of the best!!!
Thank you!!
Dustin, where is it? Comon, man. You are missing, man. Pozdrav iz Serbia.
Wow
Who else wants a Survivorman/Art of Craftsmanship collab
Are you doing ok, my friend? Hope all is well. 3 weeks without a video, I am needing my beard fix. lol
Hey Dustin, you haven't posted in awhile. I hope all is well.
All is well thanks! New video out tomorrow.
How about a mid evil time frame crossbow.
That would be rad! Cheers!
very cool projector unit and the box came out really nice......but was that a new PUPPY?
Devon’s new puppy😁.
Damn do I like this channel but 16 hundo? I was hoping for 5-7 hundred but I was totally wrong. That’s a steep grade bossman. Enjoy it because I ain’t gonna see that thing in person. They should really put your box in for free now I will say that there is something in the name because I will walk out spiders, centipedes, shield bugs, anything outside and my wife demands death and destruction. Good on you for stepping over the things that can be stepped upon
Uhh, not quite in my budget for that unit. Cool build though.
