It drops on cue and then we roll out muslin as a projection surface in about four panels. I can't imagine we will have more than a thirty pound load on it. Thanks. These are terms I don't know. I'll look em up. Also, I'm absolutely rural enough to get irrigation pipe. In rural enough to be set...

The only thread I saw on this was dated.I'm interviewing for a tech gig at a school with a 250 seat theater. I'd love to be able to discuss upgrading the lights with two moving head fixtures (spot or hybrid) eith motorized focus, preferably with a rotating gobo. I'd love something that has a...
