I had to bend over to sing into the built-in microphone on my Boss Micro BR Digital Recorder. I also wanted to have easier access to the buttons and controls whether I was sitting or standing.

Some similar devices have a hole to mount to a tripod--but musicians and songwriters are more likely to have a microphone stand than a tripod.

I could see using this same design with a small drum machine, an effects processor, or any small lightweight device you might want to manipulate with your hands instead of your feet.

This is a six-inch table leg from Home Depot. It cost about $1.25 US.

Remove the foot and the inventory tag.

This one has a 5/15-inch bolt at the top.

(Unfortunately, this is not the same size bolt for a standard tripod receiver.)

Get a Tee Nut that is the same size as the bolt on table leg.

This is an awesome idea! I have a Micro BR and love using it. I can really see the use for this. I'm going to make one but my Home Depot didn't have that particular table leg. I'll have to try a different store. Maybe Lowe's will have one.

Nice work! I always notice those little table legs and think they'd be good for mic stands. Now if I could just figure out a cheap way to fabricate mic stands..
