OK, as I mentioned, I have a Crank-2 trussing system. Cool. 1 3/8" diameter, confirmed via quick and more scientific measurements. It is NOT 1.5".
Regardless, I have a problem with my existing ADJ trussing system, but will take that up with my retailer. In the meantime, I have questions. How far can I safely extend the truss? OK, for sure I can go one additional segment for a 15-foot span. Is it safe to go 20 feet? I'm being nosy. It has already been requested to make it longer. As is, a 10-foot span is hard to fit into my trailer, which is a tad over 10-feet long, so if I go 15 feet, I'm gonna have to strap it to the top of my 4Runner, which isn't a big deal, I've had to do that in the past.
Also, I can't find this in the online store, but the expected happened. Overly-helpful people attacked my stands and several screws and nuts were lost. To prevent this in the future, all nuts will be glued into place, while stuff that shouldn't be touched will be taped over. Is there a package that I can purchase to get more screws and nuts? I don't want to go to the hardware store since those will be "silver" and stick out far too much.
The crew that does the lights loves the crank stands and I am very pleased with them as well.
