Light stand Arm


I was looking into purchasing a light stand arm w/c-clamp like the the one by GRIP-IT, so I went to the local Home Depot and in the electrical dept.I bought a 16 inch piece of the stiffest heavy duty black electrical wire and duct tape, then taped one end with a c- clamp then the other with a spring type clamp PRESTO a 3.00 dollar Light Stand Arm! Thought I would pass this one along. Susan

  Susan,
If you use duct tape for the purpose you've described, it's no longer duct tape, it's "gaffer's tape."

:-)
