    Default 5 Truss clamps needed asap (for next week) 15KG strength per clamps preferred.

    I have no clue where to post this as it is laser projector related but not directly to a component itself

    Anyway I need clamps for my projectors quick (to hang them in a truss).
    I got 3 projectors here where as one is light and only requires 1 mounting whole and the other ones aren't heavy but way wider in form factor (thus require 2 clamps each)
    They have mounting holes in them so thats no problem (I've once borrowed clamps, I know how they work but don't know where to get them)

    Does anyone know some vendors that sells these clamps?
    A shop in the netherlands would be preffered. (I guess baxshop sells them but I don't know what exactly they are called).
    But if it's a shop outside of the netherlands one that would be able to ship it before or on the 16th

    Preferably I'd like a couple of recommendations so I can choose from a range of vendors.

    Thanks in advance guys!

    So I'll heard yes.
    I'll send him an email today asking about the cost and shipping.

    Hi, I use these. http://www.doughty-usa.com/shop/16/index.htm
    Use them on all the movingheads also. Best I have found so far. Smallest and easy to use.

    Hey PJ...

    I'd recommend Doughty 'trigger clamps' as they fit most sizes of truss or scaff tube and are good to clamp in almost any position rather than just under or over as with most 'hook clamps'

    If you go to this link ---> http://www.used-doughty.co.uk/cgi-bi...howprod_T58300
    they're selling a bunch of ex-demo clamps off cheap(ish) at the moment! :-)

    Hope that helps!
    If in doubt... Give it a clout?

    Thomann in Germany sell the Global Truss range of hardware, which are about the best bang for buck I've found.

    These are the 3 I find most useful if not using G clamps:

    Frikkin Lasers

    You are using Bonetti's defense against me, ah?

    I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain.

    I have a couple of heavy duty Doughty clamps I don't need. I'm probably open to selling them.
