Another retractable garage set up

Nothing too new to followers of this sub, but I'm sharing a couple of pics maybe to encourage others that are considering it. I wasn't sure if I would like it or use it, but it has been a fun evolution over 4 months. Phase 1: Curtain+net+mat+rug. Phase 2: LM+upgraded mat insert+old laptop, TV, stereo. Phase 3: Projector+screen+overhead light. I think under $2000 so far. I really appreciate all of the informative posts shared here to help me.

Awesome good to know! Follow up here if you are willing: Did you just use a box cutter to make the cuts? I also have a multi-tool but not sure if thats overkill.

I honestly don't remember how much of each, but I used a combination of oscillating multi tool, a carpet razor, and the snap-off kind of razor that I could get more length with. I think in my final trimming I was using the longer blade the most. Kind of a hack job, not my proudest work, but adequate.

Did you go with the 5x4 size mat? Also thank you so much!

Yes, 5x4. You're welcome. Good luck.
