kuming Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Dear all, I am a theatre technician in Hong Kong. Recently, a new theatre (it is like a concert hall) is buliding in my venue. And the contractors bulid the stage floor, and they are using this yellow things under a wooden frame before they lay the wooden floor. Could anyone give me any detail infomation about this thing or any company is making this? Any other venue is using the same method to make the stage floor?[/size] http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad171/cheukmingku/084.jpg Best Regards, J.

Andrew C Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 No need for the huge fonts, thanks! Those are wedges for levelling the structure that the floor will be built on. By moving the top one left, you increase the height in small increments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerry davies Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 1. Adjustable height.2. Non-slip.3. Parallel riser.4. Cheap as chips. Can't think of an easier way to chock up things if you only need a couple of inches/centimetres. A very old, simple and reliable method simply brought into the 20th/21st century by modern materials. As for which company then almost any plastics company could do it, it isn't exactly patentable unless by Pythagorus or one of those guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulears Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 For years they've used similar things to this when leveling timber floors in bowling alleys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsabre Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 The main supplier of these (the official name is "wedgit") in the uk is Stadon Level Ltd www.stadon.co.uk. However as the OP is in Hong Kong this may not be too useful to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
