What would you like to know?
the table the projection is on, has a surface of 24 by 36.
The table is a little higher then a coffee table. Dorm room friendly!
Top can be removed and place on a dining room or kitchen table.
The projection is on a white board that fits into the top of the table.
The projection stand is hand built by myself as is the table.
The stands height it Six foot and comes apart and can be easly put in a trunk of a car.
It can also be used as a regular game table.
If I don't want to use the projection I can remove the white board and put in plexglass sheets. example: clear plexiglass, fake grass on top, then plexiglass with a grid drawn on it. thus the grass now has a grid over lay. If I'm use a map with grids I just reverse the plexglass. plexglass with grid under the map. Clear plexiglass over the map. I have been able to use wet and dry ease on the plexiglass.

Yes I'm using maptool.
I like the fact that I took a map of a game world(background) and embedded a map of a city( as a tolken).
Sorta fun to zoom from the world size down to a city map.
I guess you would call it maptoogle earth...lol

Could you provide further details on the projection stand (including pictures)? I'm trying to come up with something similar, and seeing other people's designs helps me with ideas. Thanks!

Ok I added a couple more pics.
The stand:
Round wooden base with 1/2 inch flange screwed into the center.
then screw in the 36 inch long 1.2 inch pipe.
add the pipe conection and add another 36 inch 1/2 inch pipe.
then screw the elbow on.
then a 2 inch pipe extention into another 1/2 flange that is screwed into a peice of wood.
attached to that is projector ceiling mount.
the weights where added for stability. So if anyone bumps into it, the base will not tip over.
I used 40.5 lbs just to play it safe.
