I had a wonky leg that wouldn't hold and took the brass ring out (looks like the one in the pic), and cut a slice in it with a hack saw. This created a tighter compression when I tighten it.
Then, I had a different leg with issues, and swapped a mylar (or some such material) out of a desktop stand, and now it tightens perfectly. It looks more like this one:
Anyone know where I can find more of these like the black one above? I found this kit on Atlas' website, but they want FORTY DOLLARS for it!!! Huh!??
If not, these 5/8" brass ones look like a plumbing part, and I can probably pick those up for .25 cents each at Home Depot and cut the slots myself.
Thanks!
