Hi Everybody,
I need to change lamps, refocus, and regel a series of lights 90ft in the air, where the only way to get to them is a trap door directly above each light pocket. A lift is not easily accessible, so the only way to get to them is down from above.
I can reach the front of the barrol laying on my stomach and reaching straight down, but that would mean my hips are beyond the lip of the trap door, and I really do not want to fall 90ft.
The dean of the conservatory has given me ' up to a few hundred dollars' to get a harnas and basic safety gear I can rig up to the I-Beam struts above where I will be working, but I've never actually had to rig the safety gear myself, and I'm looking for some advice on how to do it safely.
I'm thinking of buying one of the full body harnesses that go over your shoulders as well. I could even do it with a rope and 2 carabiners right? What would be the best way to do this? It has to be fairly adaptable as there are 20 of these trap door pockets in the ceiling.
