Thank you for your interest in our award winning Space Shuttle Cockpit and other space equipment.
You are looking at real pictures of the items we have to rent. We don't use photos of real equipment.
CONTACT:
Try Emailing all pertinent information to "Brick" Price at the address above. Please include item wanted, dates, location, etc. so that we can best serve your needs. We do not have a dedicated receptionist and we are often either busy working or on location. WonderWorks has adopted a 4 ten hour day schedule with Friday being a normally closed day. There is usually someone at the front desk from 9-5 Mon.-Fri. Personnel are usually at the facility from 7am to 7pm if there is an emergency. Either the receptionist or service can “punch you through” at any time in a crisis. However, paperwork to speed things along can best be handled via e-mail on off-hours or Friday and Saturday at brickprice at aol.com. NOTE: Real address not printed to avoid phishing scams.
COST:
Please email for a quote.
We do not rent by the day.
Rental fees are heavily discounted only after the second week of rental.
Rental fee is discounted for a week’s worth of travel at 50% of the normal rate per week.
HOLD DEPOSIT:
We can “pencil in” rental dates and notify you if there is a potential conflict and give you the first opportunity at renting the set pieces. A firm hold will require a deposit of 50% of the rental fee with the balance due prior to shipping.
SECURITY DEPOSIT:
A security deposit of $5,000 is required which will be returned immediately upon safe return of the rental pieces in good clean condition. These items rent frequently, therefore, if they are not returned within 14 working days of their due date we will apply the deposit to their replacement value and/or lost revenue.
INSURANCE:
We will need a “Certificate of Insurance” form/policy listing WonderWorks Inc. as additional insured on your policy.
SHIPPING:
We do not handle shipping arrangements at all. Our clients are usually studios and this is handled by the Transportation Department. Under the right set of circumstances (such as very long-term rentals), we discount the rate to 50% of the normal weekly rate to allow for those shipping weeks out so as to allow for customs and/or shipping delays if there is no other conflict of schedule.
LOCAL PICKUP:
Please call for arrangements and an appointment.
WEIGHTS/ DIMENSIONS:
The shuttle cockpit is built inside of a steel cage which has large casters attached for ease of handling and placement. It is comprised of three pieces as listed and illustrated below. The stretch section shown is optional. It is an invention of ours to allow for more shooting elbow room than the shuttle has for real. It matches the look and construction of the rest of the cockpit and has two additional seats plus two flat screen monitors. All pieces fit comfortably in a high cube cargo container or tractor trailer rig of similar dimensions. The overall dimensions for pieces are as follows (do not reference illustration for these max dimensions):
FORE NOSE W/Windows: 91” deep x 133” wide x 104” tall.
AFT WALL: 70” deep x 133” wide x 104” tall.
STRETCH SECTION: 72” deep x 133” wide x 104” tall.
The fore and aft sections together probably weigh less than 6,000 lbs. although we have not had them weighed. The cockpit is considered a light (LTL ??) load given the overall dimensions. The two main cockpit pieces fit comfortably on a 24’ flat bed but will require a large door for enclosed trailers.
A fork lift of 2.5 ton capacity minimum and with extensions, ,must be rented for our facility and another on stage unless there is a dock on stage. You will have to supply a skilled operator during this time frame for legal and union requirements. We might be able to arrange for an operator given enough notice.
VIEWING:
These items are stored off sight, and within Cargo Containers. They are available for viewing as-is and where-is by appointment only during our normal working hours. These pieces are currently stored in Agoura, Calif. A fee of $75 per hour plus equipment rental will be charged if items need to be set up for viewing
PAYMENT:
Cash (in US dollars), Cashier's Checks, Certified Check, Money Order or Direct Wire Transfer. Company checks are accepted only if it is for a major company and with a local bank. Nothing leaves without full rental payment, security deposit and insurance certificate. Unfortunately, we do not have Credit Card capability; we are looking into this as a courtesy to some of our clients who have requested it recently.
RUSH ORDERS: COST TBD
If shipment or pickup is Friday - Sunday, we will need to charge a $200 rush fee to cover someone being at the shop. Either myself (Brick) Laura, Jenna or Karen, in that order, will assist you with paperwork.
LEGAL:
The items are rented in “as-is” and “where-is”. No warranties or guarantees are implied or offered. WonderWorks is not responsible for any delays in production. We will make every effort to correct any problems which may arise. There is not much that can go wrong that cannot be readily remedied and we do have spare parts for many items.
Production must provide proof of insurance for loss and liability prior to shipping.
When you receive the invoice form, our requirements are on pages 2 and 3. Please read thoroughly and initial each page as well as signing where appropriate.
Thank you and I hope this answers most of your questions.
Sincerely, Brick Price
