Music Stand Wrench

Post by Nathan.Sobieralski »

Hello all!

This is a product I developed to quickly snug up the commonly loose hardware on music stands! Very handy at gigs, Ive used it countless times over the last few months. These are small, unobtrusive, and lightweight, perfectly at home in a music case. Versions available for Manhasset, National Public Seating, and Hamilton music stands. Wenger coming soon.

I thought of this product today because I had to tighten up my home Manhasset with two ½” crescent wrenches, and thought about how most people probably don’t carry two ½” crescent wrenches around with them to gigs.

99% of my playing is on portable stands, otherwise I’d get one, but it definitely seems like a useful gadget.

As someone in the "business" of additive manufacturing.. I am surprised you can sell these as inexpensively as you are.
As amateur as they come...I know just enough to be dangerous.

If it uses the same hardware on the music desk as the regular Manhasset, the tool should work great for these.

The AC set includes a flat head for tightening the clamp that holds the desk to the shaft. The AB set lacks the flat head, but has the two fully enclosed 1/2 inch sockets for tightening the desk pivot (where the AC set has one fully enclosed and one open ended).

Manhasset Wrenches:

A- 17mm and 1/2
B- 9/16ths and 1/2
C- 9/16th, 1/2 (open ended) and flat head
