I'm using a cheap projector off BangGood on top of a camera tripod. There's a bit of set-up time every time I want to cut some fabric since I can't mount it to the ceiling but it's still way quicker than printing, taping, and cutting pdf patterns!

Yes, I did. It was €150 from Banggood. I personally feel the cost is justified because the alternative is printing hundreds of pages and taping those together, which is high in ink cost and opportunity cost (it takes a while).
However, I do primarily (almost exclusively) use digital patterns so I use the thing very often. If you also use regular paper patterns I would imagine the value might be less.
