Due to a Rooftop AC leak at the school theater we use for a yearly dance recital that trashed the floor we have to move to another school where there is no lighting system or place to hang lights.
Hanging the over the house lights I will be installing a batten on the basket ball backboard holders and hooking the lights to that and with enough cord we can make that work. The problem the stage which is usually the band and chorus room there is nothing except an I beam 18' above the floor to screw the lights to. It looks like I will need to add a piece of wood to take up the space because the clamps will not tighten down enough to tighten to the beam. If you have another recommendation I am open to that. We got bounced from our regular place on Thursday and this is the only place that we could move into quickly and easily enough to make everything work. I will be moving the strapping that is hung 9' above the floor with some 12 ga copper wiring that they stripped down from some romex. The school staples some bed sheets to the strapping so they have a background for graduation.
