You can make a mount in a couple hours for about $15. Search "Monkey_Man mount".
I agree with the directmount recommendation. I bought the PMS mount from them and the installer mounted my Mitsi HD1000 projector with it this past Tuesday with no problems.
The free extension included was a great selling point not to mention the ridiculously low price!! I knew I needed an extension and it was an option for most mounts that added even more money to their cost.

Is the PMS a universal mount? I notice that if you use the selection tool by PJ it doesn't seem to matter what you enter, the same mount shows up. Are there different models or does the one PMS basically fit every PJ out there?
I am planning to order the mount ASAP so it beats my new PJ here. I guess it would be cool if one mount fits all; then even if I change my mind on PJs the mount will still work.

Monoprice has a great mount for $17
Just a caution about the Monoprice mount. The height dimension listed is wrong, I found the mount to be about 1.25" taller than the instructions or website listed. This is regardless of what extension tube is used. I mounted the curved legs on top of the mounting and reduced the height by 1".
With the hd1000's significant vertical offset this addt'l height may pose a problem for those with low ceilings. That being said, the mount is well made and is great deal, even with the lousy instructions.

Mountdirect, fast shipping and they have npl or pms series, I got the pms because I want a flatter looking to the ceiling,it has 3.5'' gap from the ceiling, If you want to manage the cable inside the mount get the pms it is nice looking mount. You can choose color black or white finished. It fit well with hd1000u and it is easy to install, $49.00 shipped.

I installed my friends HD1000 last week using this mount. It is a solid mount for the price. The service was excellent.
