today I got myself a overhead projector. and i ordered a box of 100 clear copy transparencies. Now am hoping I can make small drawings larger for the size I want to make my wall quilt.
I looked up this machines on line and they sell for $379.00
I got a really super good deal on a used one, they have several more, and I can pick one up Fri or Sat if any one wants one. just PM me, happy stitching!

I just want a "Magnajector"
It was a kid's toy in the '70's. Works on the same idea.
It's just a small black plastic thing with mirrors and a light bulb inside. You place it on top of a picture and it projects it onto the wall.
The focus knob is your hand sliding the lens in and out.:D
I saw one in the window of a thrift shop last month for $5. The clerk would not take it out of the window to sell it to me because the "sign" said "window items will be available on .....date" The date was 3 days away. I had come an hour's drive to shop in that town, so, I won't be back to that store come HE** or high water that's for sure!

I pais $5.00 for it and today I went back and got another one for some here on the board, shipping will be more than the cost of the projector, but much less than the $370 some for it that I found on line, do you want to to get one for you, they still have some,?
