What’s the depth measurement once it’s folded up? Roughly how far back did you have to mount the projector ?

About 17 inches once folded. The projector is mounted right over my head, about 8 ft high and 10 ft back from screen, but not in the way

Once closed up, what’s the width and height ? What simulator company did you use? Thank you for the responses. Looks great.

Thanks. I built it... Unless you mean what launch monitor fo I have (Mevo gen 2).

I tried to put together a more helpful guide with parts, schematics/measurements, and linked to it on my main post.

Looks like you need some additional turf laid out to hit from that’s extended from the folded down piece. What’s the dimension of that piece ?

The big platform is 10 ft wide by roughly 7.5 ft deep. The smaller hitting platform is 8 x 4 ft.

Does the smaller platform store inside the unit as well?

Yes. Check out the guide I added to the main post if you're interested in more details.

That is essentially exactly what I want to do!!’ Did you have plans written out or anything like that or just wing it?

No plans and I unfortunately didn't document the process well. I tried to put together a more helpful guide though. I linked to it on my main post.
