Oh I don't mind at all.... was just looking for my own solution... It's mainly about getting the spacing right for the 1/4-20's that attach to the rack. The bottom is 5/8 obviously and I added a 3/8-16 in the top to mount whatever. All holes go all the way through. Can get precise CAD measurements if you need...
Here's what I came up with. A bike rack from Home Depot clamped into a grip head. Total cost can be under $40.00 if you buy the right grip head. It's not the prettiest thing in the world but it's very sturdy.
- Another easy version. In any rental house has broken grip heads 2 1/2 (that you will give as a gift)) . Based on this))
My custom hand made C-stand mount for a the M10. Doesn't look very thick but it's made from steel and could take a childs weight no problem. Interchangeable between Cstand and american stand. I always found the back pan bar would fowl so I added 4 inches longer than the normal stand in all directions. Cost.... £15.
