It's been a busy week, so I haven't posted much lately. But I came to a milestone tonight erecting the cross.
We pre-drilled holes in the tree stump and traced the holes and truck perimeter to paper. Then, we used the paper as a drilling stencil on stage so that the trunk holes and stage holes lined up. 10" lags were used along with angle brackets fastened to the stage floor joists under the stage.

Needless to say space is tight, as Robert models here. And it's VERY dusty, too, as modeled by my camera.


And there it is...re-erected as before...sorta. It's 12' tall by 6' wide and is evenly centered. Could hold a man. Now to lighting.
