[QUOTE="OnlineDM, post: 5286332, member: 90804"] Thanks for the pics of the new rig! It looks cool; too bad about the low-light requirement, but it sounds like you've managed to make that work. I've made a modification to my setup to be more in line with what I believe you had suggested earlier - getting a longer support pole (6 feet) and putting it on the floor instead of on the table. I realized that I had scratched up my dining room table with the existing rig, and that it does take up a lot of space on the table. The floor mount works pretty well so far - now I just have to adjust the support spires beneath the projector to have it aim farther out onto the table. I'll have to see if I can get barbell weights with the appropriate diameter hole. I like the concept, but I want to carry the ballast separately from the rig itself just for weight purposes (putting the ballast in a rolling suitcase and carrying the pole/base in my other hand). With the barbell weights, I don't think that would be a possibility unless I want to unscrew the support pole from the base (which I guess I could do if I needed to). [/QUOTE]
