This is the brainstorm set, with trees and tornado. The first brain-sprinkles are visible towards the rear.



The History of Brainstorming includes a real tornado. It is made of fiberfill mounted on a wire which runs up to a slider that can move left to right across the set. The sliding mechanism has a crank so the tornado can be spun. The bottom is stuck down with a magnet glued to the bottom of the tornado - the magnet sticks to a metal ruler beneath the bottom paper.


The next frame is coming together. Here, a new bumper is welded in place, the axle is positioned on a new axle plate.

Replacement outriggers are are recycled from bits of the original trailer. This is done with an angle grinder.

The rear frame members have large holes drilled through. A pvc pipe will fit here and run the length of the trailer. The pipe will be used to hold long poles for project screens.

The new axle plate and axle secured.

BRAINSTORMING!!!! I love it!
Perfect.
This is great. Really brilliant.
I like the new light set up--the long flourescent held by stools.
