I have a few more screens available for schools/community theatres that I can give to people attending LDI. If you represent one and would like to take a screen back for your organization PM me with any specifics about what you'd prefer (front or rear, size, ect). These are da lite and stewart...

At least at one point there was someone on ebay selling a foppy emulator specifically for the etc express(ion) consoles. I think it was about $200 though if I remember right.

I'm looking for a free or very cheap way to do video warping (very basic). Think the basic version of Christie twist. But on a computer to use with a different projector. Single projector, no blend/stack. Onto a building from a wierd angle. Any ideas????

I believe one exception is pyro storage has to be locked at all times and therefore the pyro tech needs a key. I think it may be the same for stage weapons.

I like it! The rider doesn't (yet) have those specs. THAT key will not walk away!

One of my venues would give dressing room/office keys to tours that really insisted and attach like a $200 missing key fee if it didn't come back. The dressing room keys only went to the dressing rooms and a few other inside doors... nothing high security. Building keys were different and were...

Yup, if you could afford it the cork stuff is great. It comes in all different sizes and looks pretty real without the weight and mess.

Never seen that happen in show, but seen it MANY times during loadin/out on corporate AV. Best one was when someone opened all the roll up doors during strike blowing 20' pipe and drape through a screen.

Is it like electrical crimps or is it a flavor of mini-molex connector? The Barcos and Panasonics use a mini-molex (one of the million and 1 varieties of it) connector that goes into the back of the lens connector.

A few people on here already have one as I gave some to people at LDI last year (before I ran out). If any teachers/professors or similar want a degassed Xenon lamp for demos, post on here or PM me asap. I'm going to be making a few tomorrow and the setup (and bomb suit) to do it is a pain so...

I'm sorry. There were a lot of people interested. When more become available I will try to make sure you get one. I have been extremely busy with work-- this donation stuff is something I do on a volunteer basis on the side because in a lot of cases otherwise this stuff goes in a dumpster.

So the 32 x 18 RP is also gone. Went to someone that can pick it up. I will eventually have more. I frequently get small ones that can be UPSed (on your account) so if you need small feel free to PM me.

And usb external batteries are like $10 on amazon.

What about getting a used scissor lift if your floor can take it (a friend quoted one and it was under 10k)? I've worked in a few venues that only had scissors (or had mostly scissors and one man-lift and the man-lift was never used). I've worked in other venues with only the manlifts and we...

Scratch the 20 x 40 and RP material. The 18' x 32' RP is still available.
