Subject:RE: APEX lean....solution

You do have the Super Clamp and Tribar set up right?
With that accessory I never had any problem with side
to side play. However, I noticed that the heavy
keyboards tended to make the super clamp shift a
little bit, so I always placed another tribar clamp
immediately underneath the "offender" and tightened it
solid after checking it was level with a level. Maybe
that's why I never experienced any side to side lean.
If you have an extra clamp, put it underneath. If you
don't have the SuperClamp Tribar, go get it, and then
take your extra clamp and place it right underneath
for more stability. That should do the trick.
