Question:

For a cement wall that is 25′ high by 40′ wide, would it be best to put the projector on top of a pick up truck as opposed to a stand to trace off design?

Answer:

Do NOT put the projector on top of a pick-up truck! If you can barely afford one projector, you’re certainly not going to be able to afford a second one, when the first one falls off of the truck!

Use a stand for stability. At the very least, use a sturdy ladder.  In fact, they now make the stands on wheels, to give you more maneuverability. If the design is detailed, you might just have to simply draw it! Sketch it to scale first, then draw it on the wall.

By the way, if you’re going to project, then project images, like people, animals, structures, pictures, etc. Do NOT project drawings! Your pencil line becomes 3” thick on the wall, so it’s hard to stay accurate. That’s why you want to re-draw your sketch directly on the wall.

Thanks for your questions and keep them coming!
