art projector

I'm working on a project that is going to require me to duplicate some of my existing artwork on a larger scale. I have a few ways I can do this, but the easiest way would be use a projector like this:

Or something comparable. Anyone know where I can buy a relatively cheap toy version? Or does anyone have one they'd be willing to let me borrow?

PotatoVixen, maybe you could check around at the local schools and library for a slide projector. It seems like an item they'd have. Probably dusty and unused, too, so I'm sure you could arrange borrowing it.

Copy said works of art onto transparency paper using a regular copier machine, then project onto wall using an overhead projector.

Oh! Thanks, SJ, that's what I meant instead of a slide projector.

another way to do so waould be to find an opaque projector. it reads the positive image and projects it on the wall.

or, scan the images onto your computer and project them from there.

How many days have you got to get this done? I've got an opaque projector (similar to your picture) around here somewhere. I'd need to check it out and get it to you somehow - I'm in Atlanta. One thing about those kind of projectors is they won't project anything more than about a 4" x 6" photo.

Beachmom said she may have something I can use. Thanks, everyone, for the suggestions, though.
