We will either have the midsection split into quads, then have the two inner sections slide on top of the two outer sections. We could then run a barn
tracking system above the sections, behind the roof
overhang, and run a cable
system on the roof of the porch. the cables can then turn and go behind the set, where someone can pull them like a curtain, or we can use a motorized
system.
Our other thought was to have the midsection in quads, and have the two inner sections
swing open on top of the outer sections. This would probably be a lot more dramatic, and a lot harder to do. We were tinking some large hinges, and a pneumatic
system to open it.
These are our two systems under consideration, and we will hopefully have one picked soon, to prepare and get the set built.
