Title: Shelf That Clamps Onto Stand?
Post by: sickrick43 on February 20, 2004, 12:53:59 AM

I saw one of these at a show, a few years back.  It was a shelf, like 1ft X 1ft that clamped onto the guys stand.  Had a preamp and D-10 setup on it.

May be a DIY.  Anyone ever see anything like that?

expensive shit on a shelf 5-6' off the ground = severe danger. not worth it.

It's a shelf that drummers use to keep brushes, extra sticks ect on. It clamps on to whatever.

I saw a guy at the Beacon using one with his lappy/mme up there.....

I thought it was alot of $ up in the air, but maybe he had the row boxed out............

BINGO - give that man a CIGAR!

All it has to do, is hold a V3 and JB3, ecocharge can sit on the ground under the stand legs.  Clamp about eye level, don't have to worry about crimping V3 power or digital cables in a bag, don't have to bend over to check levels, flip tapes, etc.

This is about comparable to the shelf-in-the-bag thread that I've seen here.  For $40, it's worth a look...

Thanks for the timely response...

No way I would risk putting my gear on a shelf like that. It's one thing if some drunk knocks over your stand with your mics, but if you have everthing else on there as well, you are just doubling the potential damage. Keep it in a bag and bring a little fold-up camp chair/table if you don't want to leave it on the floor!!!
