Hi, everyone. This is my first post here at VHS forum.
I’ve watched a few videos about large fresnel lens salvaged from rear-projection TV.
They are amazing and powerful! It gave me experiment ideas and now I want to get one too. However most ad’s on craigslist require the buyer remove the unwanted TV, and I don’t have a truck or a helper available. So instead I tried to call one electronics recycling center in Richmond (Regional Recycling), hoping to be able to get parts from them. The call-center lady on the phone said they don’t have that kind of service (parts-picking) available. So I am wondering if there’s a place in greater Vancouver area where I can remove parts from discarded projection TV for a fee or for free.
Of course if anyone who reads this has a large fresnel lens for sale give me a shout. I prefer ones from older TV with 4:3 aspect ratio. Thanks
