    Flying a heavy sign......advice needed

    Others will chime in with the same. Don't. Nothing about what you are describing sounds safe. 200 lbs is a lot of weight. It does not sound like there is any way to do it safely with the options you have outlined above. Go with your gut, and say no. Not with the options you have available...

    Forcing lauan into controlled warp

    You could always build a plywood frame to attach them to. Give the ribs of the frame the curve you want and then attach the strips. It will give you a more controlled and predictable approach, if that's vital to you and you don't have the time to experiment. My guess is that some water will...

    Why Can't ETC Make an Accurate Clock

    The frustrating part for me is that resetting the clock on the Ion is such a pain. I wish there was a way to do it without rebooting the system. Don't understand why it's set up that way......But I have had the fun experience of getting the Ion to boot into the Windows desktop that runs...

    Automated Fixtures Moving lights advice

    I would take some time and start pulling pictures of the looks you want to achieve, then work backwards from there to help determine the lights you need. I'd hate for you to buy some very nice units but then underutilize them because they don't really fit what you are trying to achieve.

    Dance Performance

    IMO- Stage managing dance is a process that begins closer to technical rehearsals and is a lot more about calling the cues and keeping time. Stage managing theatre generally begins earlier, as you are in the whole rehearsal process, and you have a lot more responsibilities in terms of...

    What are you looking to use the moving lights for? Color changing? Specials you can quickly refocus?

    Monoprice Super-Bright 12X7 LED 612745

    I've had a chance to play around a bit more with their Super-Bright 12 watt X 7 LEDRGBAW+UV fixture. Model number 612745.My impressions- well, you get what you pay for. Powerconpass through (but monoprice doesn't sell jumper cables...), 3 pin DMX in and out. It's a very small, compact fixture...

    Wireless Microphone Suggestions

    The other thing to keep in mind is the upcoming frequency auction. Whatever you buy now may be obsolete in 3 years. Sadly, there are absolutely no details on "safe haven" channels, those are going to be completely dependent on what market you are in, and honestly, I don't trust the FCC to...

    Mysterious hum, I give up.

    Probably picking up some interference on the long run through the wall. If you've got access to it and can do it in a way that won't anger anyone else around, you could try flipping breakers one at a time and see if the hum goes away. Might be something on one of the circuits or the power run...

    Replacing MR16 Altman Strip halogens with LEDs

    I had forgotten these were at 12v. Our gallery swapped over to LED MR16 lamps for the paintings and those are dimmed off of a wall circuit. I don't think they are 12v, but I might go raid the storage closet and take a look. You can get MR16s in a variety of flavors.
