From Sara:
“To answer your other questions, the cases have lights built into the ceiling. We could also hang ships from the slots built into the walls for the movable shelving.
We are fine with an evening installation on Tuesdays or Thursdays. We’re open until 8 PM both nights. Thursdays are probably slightly better for us because I am here and we don’t have any programs after 6 PM.”
She also confirmed that @bacon1986 stopped by (not that I doubted him…)
So yeah. Based on Sara’s e-mail and David’s comments, my recommendation is that we plan to show up on Thursday 3/31 (NEXT WEEK!). I know that’s not ideal for Nick, but unless we think we can figure everything out by this Thursday 3/24 (or maybe Saturday, although she didn’t say anything about installing on Saturday…) I think we’ll just have to make do. I could easily get there by 5:30 or so and be ready to roll at 6 when their program ends.
Teardown could then be Tue 4/26 or Thu 4/28…
And yeah. Big UCS sets are cool, but also… big. Do we want to just show up with a bunch of stuff and see what fits where, or try to come up with a plan? Probably doesn’t have to be a big ordeal, but maybe a loose plan for what sets to bring and what heights to set the shelves to accommodate the larger stuff is a good idea, no?
