I've rigged up a way to safely transport and display the tippy rock.
Almost 2 years ago, there was a nasty accident with this rock planting. It fell, broke the rock into several pieces, and ripped the tree away with 2/3 of the roots gone. Somehow the pot didn't break. Made me sick
I saved the tree, and repaired the rock with superstrength epoxy.
Now that it's in good condition, I want to display it at a show, but need to be sure I can move it safely.
The following images show my plan.
I have this stand made from 3 boards with gaps between the boards. For ease of movement, I installed 4 small casters on the bottom.
The first image shows the rock secured to the table with bungees.
The second image shows one of the casters on the bottom.
Third image shows a bungee hook in the gap between 2 boards and placed around a dowel that spans 2 boards. Seems to be very secure.
When I put it in my truck, I'll block it firmly in place so it can't roll.
