Go with th projection method with your refractor matt, it will be great, and everyone will be able to see it at the same time.
In fact I am going to put my scope in a darkened room and have the apt out the window and cover around it with a dark cloth, and project it onto the whole wall or the old projector screen.....which ever lines up best... for a life size view!!
Sort of like the old camera obscura method !!!
If the cloud clears that is........I take some pics of it!!
I challenge you to a comp!! in a friendly way of course
