Trussing

Well, the first addition to this system will be base plates. I want to use these vertically for smaller events. Then, maybe I'll add 2 8.2 ft segments and some corner pieces. However, I don't really like the look of the rectangle, so I would probably be going for the "arch" look, like Tyrone has.
The next purchase will definately be a huge upgrade of my sound system, as I am sick and tired of renting, and the only alternative to renting is to use my EONS and JRX subs. Only drawback to the size system I want is power usage (I want to get something huge, but still need to learn more about power distro).
Anyways, the truss is a huge upgrade for me.

I feel ya on upgrading Chris. Im going to extend my part time to full time move an additional 6 months to attain all I want prior to the change over. Going full out Denon CD players (DNS5000?) the appropriate mixer, and also a software based DMX with those Pars that Tyrone swears by. Also going to add RCF to my fire power including Sub.
Wiedamark LED's? Me too. I priced out 8 of them. Gonna sell my 56's that I got now first.
Of course that will come AFTER I upgrade the sound.

That would be 220 per stand. 440 total.
Right now, it will be 4 SCX-500's, 8 Par 56's, and 4 Gazers, until I upgrade to the LED pars. The future holds a EFX-500 and a Chauvet Fatbeam Laser. If I add another stand in the middle, were lookin at 660.
I wish I could have afforded the stands with the outriggers, but I need to hold onto the rest of my money until I upgrade sound.
I had about 5k to upgrade my sound (at least to start), but when you all scared me about the power I would need for the setup I wanted, a re-arranged my "crap to buy" list and worked on my lighting first.

Don't forget about the weight of the truss! I believe the 2 metre sticks of truss are 33 pounds each. So you've already got 66 pounds in trussing plus the weight of the adapter T's have to be factured in, probably another 10 pounds or so...
