Hi Michael
Yesterday was v helpful. I am reflecting!
Quick Q:
Was it hard to make those stand-alone stands for the digital frames? I think it wd be a good way to have a bunch of  frames around the room for our showing, so I am thinking about buying some cheap lamps– approx 6 of them. ( we already have 2 that you made)
If it is easier, we could avoid having the cord run thru the pole.
What do you think?

MC reply:
They are not so hard to make… I’ve attached a picture of the parts…  It is easier to not run the cord through the pole.  Gaffer’s tape on the back will keep things in check.

Laptops are the main tool for now.

This is a test on small digital frames, using text from “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?”
