This might have already been posted somewhere but after searching for a while I could not find anything.

I am trying to determine how big my table needs to be and where to place the mirrors for optimum viewing area.  I have already built one table out of a cheap table I bought from walmart that had a 24"x24" viewing area, now of course my screen does not fill it entirely actually only does about 14” on one side, I have seen others tables but I do not know how they were able to calculate the positions of the mirrors, I was wanting to do one that was at the same height as a normal desk, not a short one, and make the viewing area as large as I could.
