I'm probably the last person you'd suspect with this hobby, as in very pale Caucasian lady in her 50's. Yep, Grandma likes to build stuff! I think i'll go with disassemble and reassemble on site. It will be easier to protect the individual boards that way, and i don't have to worry about a connector getting banged up. I'd offer to set it up and demonstrate what it does, which is so very harmless, it's basically a very pretty light show, but that would be a pain, lol.
