May I ask how much this was? I am pretty interested in something like this, but just a giant silver ss, with blue lighting. I didn't realize there was that much wood behind it to keep it sitting up, looks like it might be a pain to remove and put back in if need be.

The panel will stand with less board than shown in the photo, I simply wanted to allow Mel to make the decision on how small to make them. The braces are slipped into place to allow the panel to be broken down and stored when not being shown, the two skirts fold over and then lays flat approximent size 30 x 22 x 23 inches thick with miles of led's strung erh...about 10ft wieght is less than 10lbs total

we can talk about your project if youd like....
