Simplifying the proscenium


After cutting pieces for the upper mechanics of the proscenium i discovered some complications. It is a bit chunky and complex in some areas, so i decided to simplify. The suspension cable will consist of a rod with three cables in tension, and the pulley device will be repeated twice above to move the suspension frame side to side along perpendicular suspended cables. The up and down movement will be localized at the pulley device, below it in a wench like form. The overall result should be less weight and more refinement in the pieces.
