Ours is bigger than yours!

Just kidding.  We use a DaLite 70x70 and we are looking
for something bigger too.  Our screen has developed
"sagging edges" (the edges are not flat, how can we
fix this?)

The 70x70 is fine for Realist format but once you start
showing 7p or wider, you lose a lot of area.

Something like a 6x9 feet screen would be nice.  I think
this is the size used by the NYSS?

A Stewart screen for 6x9 would cost $1350.  Does this
price include the stand?  (I assume you need some kind
of frame to hold this?)  A bit pricey considering that the
70x70 DaLite is only around $160 (a great deal for
the money!) and this includes a stand.

Any info on reasonably priced screens will be greatly
appreciated!

George
