Good day,

If anyone has flash stands thick enough to support Alien Bees units, and strip boxes, please, let me know.
I really need something better than the speedlight stands..

cheers

    I've got some from work we're selling that I was getting ready to put on Craigslist, but I need to find out what they are first. Also, I can't imagine it's worth your money to ship them, but maybe I'm wrong.

    let me know what kind you have, and how much they ask for; I get a discount through UPS, so it may end up being worth it after all.
    just to give an example of what i look for : http://www.paulcbuff.com/ls3900.php

    I looked and these are too lightweight for your needs. Sorry!

    found light stands.
    Still am looking to get the strip boxes compatible with alien bees, though.

    I picked up this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003PFKIEK/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    It is not exactly the manfrotto, but for the time being it works. I'll be upgrading eventually. When using AB800 and 22" BD, it bows just a tad, and it bothers me.
