Lightbulb Roadbed

We got ahold of a decent amount of Hardboard for use as roadbed.
Turned out really good. It did not scoot, or shift and we only taped joints between and the edges where we entered onto it. Easy to drive on and was not damaged if was inadvertantly stepped on.
This time around we placed them over the carpet joints which meant we had less tape there as well.

To take them one step further we are planning to paint the yellow and white stripes.

They were nice, pretty easy to lay down. Sorry I wasn't there during tear down, hopefully they came up as easy. Great show looking forward to the next one!

They did come up easy Kent.

As for tear down, you set up all the tables and chairs (by you're self), a huge help.
