Step 2: Darken the inside of the box
Now you need to darken the inside of the box,this stops the light from reflecting back into the image thus ensuring better quality.To do this,use the black paint to paint the inside of the box and make sure it's dry before continuing.
Step 3: Place the lens
Draw the contour the magnifying glass on the piece of cardboard you cut earlier in step one,then carefully cut it out using the precision knife or scissors (whichever you prefer),it will be better to cut a little inside the circle you just traced to make the magnifying glass tight in place.After cutting it out,take the magnifying glass and hold it in the part of the cardboard you just cut using tape.Make sure the magnifying glass is well fit to ensure better quality.
Step 4: Finishing the Projector
Place the phone holder inside the box,cut a piece of cardboard to the size that perfectly covers the box
