Abstract: Microphone stand attachment systems to attach a support base to a longitudinal axial element easily, quickly and securely. An attachment guide may include a threaded plug and a support base may include a threaded socket. In embodiments, a male tapered flange may frictionally lock with a female tapered element of a socket to secure a longitudinal axial element to a support base. Specific attachment structures, in embodiments, are also described, as are various plugs, tapers, sockets and methods of attaching a support base to a longitudinal axial element.
Abstract: At least one embodiment of the inventive technology may be an item support apparatus (1) that comprises at least two fee (4); a base (5) from which said feet extend at a first retention element (6); at least two risers (7) retained to the base by a second retention element (8); and at least one arm (9) retained to each riser by an arm retainer (10).
