As I said it was really just a way to see if we could use old laptops to make free putawayable 2nd screens.

Presuming you just want another screen to run a browser, what about sharemouse? I used something like it back in the day. It allows you to use one keyboard and mouse across multiple computers.

Logitech options does something similar (although I've never used it myself) https://www.logitech.com/en-gb/product/options/page/flow-multi-device-control
Not sure whether it requires specific mouse/keyboard or not.

Did this get resolved? An amalgamation of a few sources below;
If both machines are running Win10 and are on the same wifi network;
Open Settings on the laptop which will be a second screen Click System Click Projecting to this PC Choose your settings Go to the other PC or laptop Press Win-P and click on Connect to a wireless display Wait until your other laptop is detected Select it and choose whether to duplicate or extend

I looked at this and similar to cast from linux / windows to android / rassbian.
Nothing came of it, unfortunately.
Wireless HDMI extenders are a possibility, but the hardware is pricey.
