Everyone,
Of course, the 8's wooden platform is historic! We decided to mount it
on the wall above the ASR-'33 next to the 8 itself. The platform is light, so we drilled a small hole in the center (it'll be covered) and hung it with a lag bolt and washer into a stud.
I was wrong to hang the platform this way. That was a stupid thing to do. There are many other ways I could've hung it on the wall which would have been just as easy/effective and would not have made any permanent changes. Very regretful about this. Lesson learned.
while some of us might fret over this Look at it this way, you may have prevented several things, Some visitor getting hit on the head with this if you used a substandard hook that ripped off the wall This might result in a liability lawsuit with damages for medical and/or work loss from injury, Maybe even a bad reputation from the community and/or Infoage management in exhibiting poor responsibility. And possibly having the Liability insurance increase upon the next renewal because of accidents/lawsuits. Those are the alternatives
