Woodenspoke Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 I have not seen what you are looking for if you want something like the Stumac version This may be closer to what you want made by HTC http://www.amazon.com/HTC-HGP-10-Bench-Gri...d/dp/B0001LQXM2 However you will need to either bolt it to the floor or bolt a large piece of concrete to the base.

And yes I was trying to avoid buying the StewMac one. Pretty sure that I have seen the exact one that StewMac sells, somewhere else over the years. I was thinking that there was a version in a truck mechanics catalog. Woodenspoke, Thanks also I am looking for a bolt down version. Although I do like the overall design better. Another reason to improve my welding skills I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNL Guitar Repair Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Also found this one http://shopping.canoe.ca/shop/product--cat...Id_3147856.html. Not sure what the shipping would be but looks like another possiblity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another reason to improve my welding skills I guess. No problem. But if you look at the HTC base you can just remove the rubber feet and use bolts to tattach it to the floor no welding is necessary. just a hammer drill for the concrete. I think the crank arm is worth the extra $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
