Day 87- Completion of crush wall!

I think it's definitely ready for primetime, ghouls! We finished the 'stone work' around the vacuform panels. Not that easy as we had to cut the foam pieces to fill the spaces around the panels. We used glue and also screws from the back of the frame. The foam is quite dense but very light weight. Once the wall details were complete, we tested the mechanism and everything works fine. There is very little additional weight there. In the second image it looks like the crush wall barely gets past the back wall but there is actually plenty of space there. The first image shows the wall from the side after moving it forward with the pulley mechanism about 1-2 feet. It's very smooth motion now.
