Fixed it.

Fabulous, and Thank You Circus Boy Tym! I added some braces that cross the front just below the knee, like on the set that Tym built for me years ago, and I was at least able to take a few steps without the aid of the tree. There's still some fine tuning to do, but overall I think we're good.

I'm still not certain about the height. It will depend on how much stuff there is to hold onto. At 10 feet, it's hard to even hold someone's hand so I can remain stationery. If I lost a few inches, it might be easier. Luckily that's a fairly trivial on-site mod.

Thanks! When will you be arriving?

Sometime tomorrow. Joshua and I are leaving tonight and driving, but who knows how long it'll take us...! :-)

Actually, what I'd really like is the ability to leap from a normal standing position up onto the silts smoothly, without stopping or breaking my stride. Preferably in the middle of an existing performance, and preferably with no warning.
