I had a great idea! I was always worried about my mic stand getting
knocked over, ruining my expensive mics. So I came up with the idea of
making weights for them. So ,I got three scuba diver weights, which are
made of lead pellets inside a nylon mesh. Each weight weighs 5 pounds,
perfect for this application. Years ago, I used to make things out of leather,
and I had leftovers: this is buffalo hide. I punched my holes, then used a
hand awl to stitch these three today. The dimensions are 6" x 6 1/2". I couldn't be happier now!
