Flight was postponed in 2021 due to the Covid 19 Pandemic but parts of the set had already been built, Me and Ewan had completed all our paperwork and left the show to work on other things. It was then decided that parts of the set would be built on stage as part of a classroom project with the first year TSD's managing the project. I had the opportunity to help out during the week as i knew how the set went together. | |||

<gallery mode=packed-hover heights= | The Kinesys grid sled was designed so that instead of having 3 people lifting the chain hoists across the grid (something that involves working in very close proximity with other people) the chain hoists could instead be pulled/ pushed across the grid.

This initially was going to be a quick build using stuff we could repurpose but once i got started building the project turned into a labour of love.

The sled also allows for the chain to be kept together when rigging the hoist as before the chain would have to be kept in the bag and would mean that the 3rd person would normally have to keep a hold of the bag whilst the motor was being rigged. | |||
