Re: Lift out bridge

[Steve Wise <swise@aoot.com>]

Note in the picture Rick (or Ricky?) sent out, they have a 4" or 6" step 
at the bottom that allows running the wire through.  It might be better 
to make that sloped at each end so you could run a dolly over it.  Also, 
it seems to me that it could be maybe 2" high and still serve its 
purpose, which I assume is to allow the wiring to be safely routed, and 
maybe provide some stability to the setup. 

Cheers,

Steve.
