hi oliver,
please go to: http://www.geocities.com/screbamotherfly/
i have uploaded some rough hand-drawn diagrams, to illustrate what i
have in mind...
My sugestions are as follows:
Option A:
Attach clear nylon string (i.e. fishing line) to wall hooks, to the
left & right sight side of wall. The wall hooks screw into the wall,
and the nylon wire would be attached to each end of each hook. Clear
fine nylon wire is barely visible (esp. through a window), but i am
sure it could give the appearance that the laptop is suspended in thin
air (unless one looks very closely)
Option B:
Attach two pieces of thin material e..g. wood, plywood, perspex etc to
underside of laptop. It will either have to be two pieces binded
together perpendicular to each piece (i.e at 90 degree angle) , or one
piece bended in such a way. The vertical side would be attached to the
the wall firmly. i.e with screws (and rawl plugs). So the laptop will
be help in place from the back, and underside, but no one can see
support from the front side.
Option C:
My initial idea (but perhaps less practical) - attach four pieces of
cylindrical perspex tubular "things" - like straws (if they exist), -
each one carefully placed under each end of the laptop (i.e. front
left, front right, back left, back right). It is difficult to tell
how well any of these options would work - it all depends on the
lighting, and colour of the background, and how it reflects light from
the side walls, sunlight, shadow, thickness of the showroom glass
window etc)
Option D:
Similar idea to Option B, but the support would simply be a block of
wood or perspex, or some other BLOCK of material that can be painted
or be made to blend with the overall colour of the surrounding walls.
It would simply, (but firmly), be attached to the back of the screen,
so it could support the whole laptop. It would have to be a very firm
bond e.g. heavy-duty VELCRO etc
I hope you find my ideas useful
