A potentially silly question:

Update: You weirdos (affectionate) have given me such amazing advice, options, and avenues of thought. Thank you 😊

I would like a projector. I want to paint a mural on two doors. The idea is to design them on my iPad, project them, then paint the doors.

The projectors I've found are muy caro £££ but I won't need them for long so I can't justify the price. It doesn't have to be the best quality, just enough to get the basics down.

So, pocket frendos: Any ideas?

Is there a library of things near you?

@Maker_of_Things What a great service. I'm learning so much today.

Another thing to consider might be an overhead projector, and the artwork printed on transparencies.

Maybe an old working OHP would be cheaper to buy. I got a flat pack portable one a while ago for similar reasons.

@Maker_of_Things @book I was thinking the same (we used to use them to help drawing scenery when I was a student) but then I realised that we all got old and OHPs are probably an endangered species by now.
