Further work on the stargate: Carving out the wells to take the lumin disk plasma lights in the arc segments.

	Painted gate segments with notches The arc segments notched to take the back of the lumin disks
	Two segments butted together Showing how the notches from a well for the back of the lumindisk
	Closeup of the space for the plasma disk

	Another view of the illuminated disk in the arc

In other progress -- we bought die-cut velcro circles from nametags4u.com, and Andy sewed the hooks to our patches and the loops to the sleeves of our new BDUs.

We've bought a 15' shock-cord-strun tent pole to bend into a semicircle to tension a center curtain made out of white ripstop for the rear-projection of the Abyss effect. It'll be split down the center so we can actually walk through our "event horizon".

It's a laminate of 3/16" thick on 1/2" thick.

We do have some 1x2 spars to build into a frame behind the whole works, but the disks are pretty light. The frame is more to keep everything upright when we stand the ring up.
