Bassmonkey Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I have a problem with my beloved Mic Stand. I unscrew the base after each use and found that when I last used it - after coupling the two parts (cast iron base and stand), the thread was just spinning. Hardly catching at all. I had to pack with tape to get it to stay still. It had never, ever even been loose before then. It makes me wonder whether it may have had some kind of collar to make the grip tight which has dropped off. Anyone got one and can check for me? If not, I am stuck. I guess i'd need to get a threaded insert made and graft on to the bottom of the stem? God knows where and how.....any thoughts? Have been in touch with Atlas - not them. There is a company selling em new in the US have emailed them too. Help...Thx Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Bass Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Is this like yours? How are the threads looking on both sides? Do they seem worn? Can you pull the stand out of the base without unscrewing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmonkey Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Hi Ghost Bass. Have sorted it. Was the thread on the stem which had worn out. Ended up getting a new bit engineered. £80 though but will outlive me. Thx for trying to help buddy. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
