[QUOTE="Rob Spence, post: 51650, member: 80"] Re: Flyware on EV QRX I made up the boards and used them on a gig. I had to use bolts to put them on the speakers as that was all that was available (see above). They worked pretty good but there were a few issues. The first photo shows the boards as originally made. [ATTACH=CONFIG]150425.vB5-legacyid=3817[/ATTACH] There were two minor but annoying issues. One was that it was awkward to align the bolt holes and start the bolts. The second was that the board (platform) was not level on top of the speakers. Neither was a show stopper. See photo 2 shows them in use. [ATTACH=CONFIG]150426.vB5-legacyid=3818[/ATTACH] So, I ordered some threaded knobs from McMaster Carr and picked up a length of threaded rod at the hardware store and changed from bolts to knobs. That helped. I then added some feet so that the board put the flyware into tension and made for a rock steady platform. I added some rubber to the bottom of the feet to protect the finish on the speakers. I used the stuff that Audiopile ships with cases. See photos 3 & 4. [ATTACH=CONFIG]150427.vB5-legacyid=3819[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]150428.vB5-legacyid=3820[/ATTACH] I don't need 2 per side for the next few events but they are all set for when I need them. [/QUOTE]
