Oh, not knowing what equipment you have makes guessing challenging.

As another suggestion: Get a screw jack (the kind with a large area
used in chem labs and such), place this under the easel (or even attach
to it), rough focus (as you describe), then fine focus may be
accomplished by raising and lowering the jack. Obviously this will
change the size of the image slightly, but may be insignificant.

Or spend your money on the fancy focuser that is limited to only 14"
high.
