Looking for a projector mount?

Abbey Lane · Jan 25, 2012

Does anyone know where I can get a mount to attach a projector (projector link below) to a DJ light tripod stand or any other way I can mount the projector on the stand?

Take a sheet of paper and, using a pencil, punch out the spots for the mounting screws. Translate this to a piece of plywood and drill out the holes. Drill a hole and mount this onto an O-clamp. You're done and it costs $10 instead of $100.

Manfrotto Super Clamp with stud(s) and the Manfrotto heavy duty flex arm.

Wes, any possibility I could see a pic of your projector mounted with this clamp?

You can skip the flex arm and just mount it directly to the clamp, but I need the extra height the flex arm gives me.

So your projector has a compatible mounting port/nub built-in?

DJ Wes · Jan 25, 2012

Yes. That is correct.

Wes, that's what I'm looking for.

I found the clamp on the net, but couldn't find the flex neck.

Where did you buy them?

Thanks!

Incase you don't have the mounting port built into the projector (like me) 2 Manfrotto Super Clamps combined with a regular mounting bracket will do it.

DJ Wes · Jan 25, 2012

Let me Google that for you.

Thanks LOL. I did that and found it but couldn't change the post fast enough.

My projector has the standard camera threaded insert. I use a camera tripod. Gives me all the adjustment I need.

How big does the gobo look on the floor?

Abbey Lane · Feb 9, 2012

DJ Wes, I did buy the clamp and arm. They work great. Thanks!

So Dobby10 what exactly are you using? I admit not the most mechanically inclined. The Super Clamps plus a regular ceiling mounting bracket plus a pole extension to go from the super clamps to the projector bracket?

Made an easy mount for my truss.

DJDerik,

So it looks like you bought the projector mount bracket and drilled holes for the clamps? It pivots easy for display on the dance floor?

Djderik · Apr 24, 2012

Honestly..... bought 2 ADJ O-clamps, 3 bolts, 3-1" spacers...and a sheet of metal plate. Measured the holes with a paper template....drilled them out and here you have it. Yes i know it won't swivel, but I can mount it on my truss right side up or upside down....the O Clamps hold it solidly in place. Less than $30 and done.

Not too difficult to add a few more items to make it swivel!
