Tiny stand or bungee device to run on stage?

(1/2) > >>

MakersMarc:
I rarely tape onstage but a Charlie Hunter run is coming. My manfrotto is just a little big, wondering (seen them not sure what they're called) about one of those bungee wraparound things for cellphones and standalone recorders? Or a cheap tiny stand?

Thanks!

heathen:
Which Manfrotto do you have that's too big?  Is it the 5001B Nano?

MakersMarc:
So old I can't read the numbers,, I've had this stand since 2000 or so. 2 feet is about lowest it'll go.

goodcooker:

I used to have one of these for on stage and sitting on mix desks and stuff. Don't know where it got off to...

I'm always up front.  I use a pair of stands and extensions that I've cobbled together.  One of the stands is a vocal-type mic stand that I cut in half. The other is a short kickdrum stand. Both are folding tripod stands.  I have them adapted for 3/8-16 thread, which is the smaller thread set for mics. The extensions are 3/8-16 all-thread rod from the hardware store, with female thread rod connetors to provide a female thread for attaching the extensions.  The extensions range from 6" to 3'.  The 3/8-16 extensions are a fairly small diameter, and help keeps things low profile.
THe stand that I cut in half is a 2'->4' stand w/o any extensions, and can go to 7' with a single extension. The kickdrum stand is short, and only extends from base height of maybe 6" to 1'. With the extensions, can go to 4' or 5' and be stable.
