homemade-light-stand.jpg

Light stand with Flexible clamps for positioning reflector panels:

I made 4 sets of flexible clamps:
box of 18 spring clamps purchased at Menards for $10, ~5 foot length of heavy gauge electrical wire, carton of 3/4" hose clamps to secure wire to the spring clamps.
I used different size clamps on each end of wire, so that I could clamp to a wide variety of objects or pipe diameters.

I made moving stand from old chair base and 3/4 inch pipe. I wrapped base of pipe with electrical tape until it fit snugly in chair base.
Adding fittings to end of pipe allows additional length or horizontal bars to be added.


other sizes: small medium original auto
