lunchbox stand solution

tntent · Nov 3rd 2014

Thought I would share my homemade stand solution for the lunchbox.. Not perfect but works very well and I'm still tweaking it a bit.. Take a simple 40$ music stand. Remove the top. Take some readily available flatbar iron and bend it to size.smooth out and round ends etc. Fabricated a way to bolt flatbar to stand. Drill holes where strap mounts. Replaced with longer screws.. Soon to be wing nut style..

The Google+ links aren't working for me. Photobucket might be an easier way to share photos.

That looks great!

This allows me to pack up the kemper quickly and keep it nearby with a small stage footprint.. I just loosen the tilt screw and flip the lever to pull out to bar still attached and transport it that way. As I said Im thinking of changing the side screws to a wing nut solution but the metal bar is pretty tight and I kind of like leaving it attached to just drop back into stand at home.. Im curious if the bag could be modified to still work with it still attached..

Very cool!

That looks good, I'd like some pictures without the Kemper mounted to see what the stand looks like after modification.

That looks great, a little bit like R2D2 with legs.

I'll see if I can get some more pics up for you guys soon

That does look great! So when you disassemble it, does the tilt joint stay attached to the KPA? Does it still fit in the Namba bag?

Tilt joint stays the way I'm currently using it. However I was considering replacing side srap bolts with a thumb screw.... They are metric 4 btw.. This would allow easy complete removal although it's a bit of a tight squeeze in between metal u shape

Someone would be able to sell quite a few of these I suspect ...

This looks great, similar idea to what I had wondered about. When Gallien Krueger had their lunchbox guitar amps ML250 etc back in the 80's/90's they offered a bracket similar to what you have fashioned that would mount on a tripod based mic stand. With the thumbwheels it also allowed the amp to be angled as well. I like your idea. What did you use to mount the flatbar on the music stand?

My machinist may be interested in making more of these as a hobby for a small profit. How many would be interested ? What would done be willing to pay ?
