I had this installed today, the installation was quick and easy. http://www.ontrax.com/

I called and ordered it yesterday after reading glowing reviews regarding it on another forum. Superior customer service in ordering...even called the ups guys cell phone (he'd already picked up) so it got shipped for receipt today instead of tomorrow. Lifetime warranty etc.

Now I'm using it in another sort of application it's a wall of fabric 18feet wide by 10 feet high that I can open and close at will ;)

Melody,

That's a really great idea! What didn't we think of that?

Huh? :confused: I did think of it I just didn't know someone had already done it :lol: :lol:

I initially had to figure out how to hang a wall of fabric on a darn dropped/suspended ceiling and you know what I did it too :tongue2: I think it was quite unique anyway I had these hooks and dowels.... THEN I saw a guy who had sort of made one which included the tracks with a rod at Ikea...that was over on FredMiranda....

Then I forget where it was I found out about the Delta Muslin mover they have that at B & H and it is a cheaper price if I remember correctly. (well it is 2:30am here I'm not exactly at my optimum brain function :lol: )

btw my dowel setup cost less then $20 :rofl: took forever and a lot more to make those darn drapes though!

YEP that's where I saw about this place, prior to that I'd only seen the Delta brand and this place is so customer service great! I love the lifetime warranty too!

You know honestly for your muslins it really would be nice the rail itself is small and you could paint it the ceiling color too! instead of the stands for them you could just hang it with the clip/hooks it would be faster!

I love the seamless paper but boy do I wish I could just use muslins, so much easier to change colors....I can't put a motorized system on a dropped system so I have to change the paper on the stands :baldy:
