Shimmer Directions: Before Moving

• The main spring should be completely unwound before removing the sculpture from the wall.

•  Always tape the spring-belts in place before moving the sculpture.  This will save a lot of aggravation when it is time to set the piece up again.

•  See the diagram for the best tape locations.

•  Never lay the sculpture on a horizontal surface for a long period of time without supporting the spokes of the patterning wheels. I use crumpled newspaper to support and separate the wheels when packing the sculpture.

 

• Always use the template and level when reinstalling the sculpture in a new location.  

• Leave the springs taped in place until the sculpture is again mounted on the wall.
