Looks nice. My old projector stand was OK for Super 8, but not big enough for 16mm, so I bought a cutting board and screwed that in place. When I got another 16mm projector, a stand came with it , which is much better, and a bit taller than the old one.

A 16mm projection stand should be at least 4ft high. This is to allow the projector beam to go over the heads of your seated audience.

I assume the folded legs live underneath the top section.

Your stand looks very nice! I use the dinner table, and I do light the back of my head if I don't slide down a little in the chair :-)

Thanks Elvind,I use this stand on the table and works well,it can extend quite high but I never use it that way,before this it was a book under the front of the projector to raise it up,much better now,Mark
