I’m using a cheap projector off BangGood on top of a camera tripod. There’s a bit of set-up time every time I want to cut some fabric since I can’t mount it to the ceiling but it’s still way quicker than printing, taping, and cutting pdf patterns!

    If you don’t mind me asking, what’s the resolution on your projector?

    I’m looking for something similar and trying to get an idea of what resolution this use might require

      It’s a native 1080p. If you’re on Facebook, there’s a group called “Projectors for sewing” that has a lot of information, they recommend a min. res of 720p. In the US there’s a big market of second hand projectors but it’s trickier in Europe, which is why I ordered a cheaper new one (Wanbo T2 Max).
