That's very cool. Does it break down and re-assemble easily?

One of the things I find constantly at issue with the curved setups is the screen material behavior. How are you getting around the forward bow and tension ripple issues with the designs? If I use PVC material it ripples, if I use fabric design it bows? I'm wanting to update my current screen to better address those issues. I've looked into Poplin, Tendo and Spandex based fabrics, but they have some negative properties when tensioned.

We use an elastomer polymer material so no ripples.
Yep it convexes slightly but a good tension system and warp software soon tames that.

Do you have any links/pics of this smaller setup??
That setup you posted is very cool but too big for my needs.
I'm looking for something about 6ft across and 3-4ft in height for use with 1080p, ideally 3d, projectors like the Optoma hd33.
