I have just purchased a collapsible background and looking to find a support for it. It would seem that I can use a standard konig type lightstand but would need a bracket that fits on to the top of the light stand to actually hold the background up?

I think it just needs a hole to put the top spigot of the light stand through, then just a u shaped bit to sit the top of the internal frame of the background on?

EDIT: Or just a bit of u channel that would screw onto the spigot and allow the collapsible frame to just sit inside?

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Looking to buy one today.

Here's a pic of the background courtesy of EOSJD (cheers mate!).

I've got a set of these type clamps although not this brand. Not quite sure on what to modify them to but if I could fix something on to the top of the lighting stand such as even just a small block of wood using the spigot and a nut to hold it firmly then use the clamps to hold the background on?

I bet I find the spigot on the top of the Konig lighting stand is not metric now and some odd PG size! Can anyonr confirm what type of thread/size this is?

EDIT: Is it a standard 1/4" thread? Could I just get a pack of 1/4" nuts to fix something on to the thread?
