DJaz's Rig Part 2

[FabDJ]

Have finally got my laser today, thank Christ.

After playing with it in many locations I have put it on my light stand for safety's sake.

Putting it up high reduces the risk of looking directly into it like what happened a hundred times today when it was on the floor or on a table.

My eyes dont feel so good right now.

Broke the pissy tripod when I stripped the silly plastic thread, wouldnt last 10 seconds in the field.

Smoker set off the smoke alarm inside also.

I might bundle my power cables for the three locations they go to with gaffer tape and mark them both ends as setting up took 1.5 hours today.

Also super glued washers to bolts and wing nuts to save time also.

Set up my main light stand and lights with the stand laying horizontally on the floor and I do major adjustments and tightening there.

When I stand it up I can do minor alterations then.

I find it easier to do it this way at the lights are heavy and awkward to balance while you are trying to thread nuts and bolts overhead.

Isn't the light stand telescopic? Can't you set up all the lights at the stand's lowest height before extending it to the maximum height?

[FabDJ]

Yes, Its telescopic but I have to lift 35kg with one hand and thats a bit hard.

[JonnyB]

we just need to make sure someone quote's him as soon as he makes a post so if it is deleted we still have a record of what he said so we can chuckle about it haha

[FabDJ]

Dennis was ok, had a lot of wisdom to pass on between negative comments.

Helped me set up.

[Jaz]

by the way he posted i thought he was just some angst ridden pubesint 15 yr old lol

[chrismak]

For some reason I always pictured him with a beard. Turns out he has one. And he looks a bit like Obadiah Stane from the first Iron Man film.

[JonnyB]

thats deffinatly not what i thought hed look like, he looks like a nice guy. but meh, dont judge a book by its cover. and never trust a man with a beard haha

[FabDJ]

Thought he was older than that but he has the appearance of a bouncer which he has been

Just a thought, perhaps we could post pictures of what we all look like on our avatars for a while.

It would be interesting to place a face to a name

I'm game if you are.
