More Miscellaneous Internet Oddity
I’m working on the end of King’s Monster, and I need some information on raising and lowering chandeliers. Along the way I ran into this video on cleaning a two-ton chandelier in Pittsburgh. I still haven’t found any useful information on medievalesque mechanisms for raising and lowering heavy light fixtures, but I enjoyed taking a few minutes off to watch the two cleaners climbing around on this huge crystal-covered chandelier. Hmm, a light fixture that big would actually be large enough for a fight scene…. Naaaaah.
Oh, wait, here’s an article on manual winches for chandeliers. And here’s an image. How did writers ever manage before the internet, anyway?
