Title: Mic stand help..(pic included)
Post by: Corbin on February 12, 2008, 03:43:44 PM

Hey all,

So the last time I taped I came home missing a piece of my gear.  Thank god that it's probably the cheapest piece in the whole rig.  I was pretty boozed but I remember rushing to take my stand down after the show and I was loosening the knob.  I loosened it way too fast and it flew off onto the floor and disappeared.  Here's a picture that shows the piece I'm missing...

I called micsupply where I bought the stand but he never got back to me.  So...
Does anyone have this piece that I'm missing kicking around their house?
If not, does anyone know where I can purchase a replacement?
If not again, does anyone know how I can fix it up using parts from my local hardware store?

It's a Manfrotto 3336.

Thanks folks,

Adam

Check this pdf for it.

I am pretty sure it's on there at the top.
the 109.311 knob.
Not sure if you lost any innards to the brackett,
but they have those too.

This is a pdf from their site.

In the meantime, duct tape to the rescue!

If you want to be absolutely, positively certain you order the right part(s), it's probably a good idea to call Bogen/Manfrotto directly for support.
