[SML] floor pockets or drop boxes

[Jon Ares]

Personally, drops from a grid (power and DMX, please.). From my
experience, floor pockets are NEVER in the right place - often ending
up right in the middle of a wing/exit.  OR, sit down with the
architects and client designer(s) and determine where the House Hang
of legs are going to be, before figuring out where the floor pockets
go. Again, they always seem to be spaced out in some sort of
arrangement that maybe speaks to being evenly spaced DS to US, but not
actually where the legs are gonna go.

Floor pockets for a cyc groundrow would be just fine for me - not much
in the way of rolling scenery up there.

Again, just my tuppence.
