Premium Member Mark Kenfield Posted February 10, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hi everyone,I'm trying to track down a lightweight (preferably aluminium) c-stand column (ideally a 30" or 40") with a standard Junior pin base, to use to extend the reach of an Avenger A4050CS Boom Stand.A steel column would be too heavy for my tastes. So I'm wondering if anyone knows of any lighter options?Cheers,Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Hartman Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Use the casting and pins from a shabby looking used C-stand, substitute aluminum tubing from a metals supplier for the steel tubing.

Premium Member Mark Kenfield Posted February 11, 2019 Author Premium Member Share Posted February 11, 2019 Thanks JD. Sounds like a good, simple, fix.Unfortunately I don't have any old or shabby c-stands to hand. But I think I've found what I'm looking for though. Avenger make aluminium combo stand extensions, the 142B and the 146B, and they seem to fit the bill pretty perfectly for what I need. The weight is pretty good too, 2.4kg and 2.8kg respectively.
