Tips & Solutions

Hello! I work at a museum that has 10 of Rayanne Tabet's Steel Rings (link to work from our website: https://thebasskiosk.dom5183.com/objects-1/info/7122) The work is 10 steel rings, approx. 30" diameter/4" wide, that stand upright by themselves, with clear rubber wedges to keep them from rolling side to side, but doesn't prevent them from tipping over. I am interested in the possibility of creating a mount that can be screwed into the floor that will prevent the rings from rolling and falling, and is discreet. Children are always tempted to run through them, and they have fallen down before because a child pushed one ring over. They are also heavy, so it is dangerous. I'm interested in seeing what kind of custom solutions could be fabricated. I thought of a floor plate (below) that blends into the polished steel sections that sit on the floor.

Also looking for someone who could fabricate. The museum is in Miami, and I've had some trouble finding mount makers nearby who can take on this kind of job. Willing to work with mount makers not in FL too.

Thanks for reading!
