These things are such a hassle. You video shows me I am not the only one to find this trickier than it should be. thanks.

Thanks mate. You saved me from the increasingly demoralising attempt I’d been making. Starting by putting both bands on the ring that attaches to the mic stand was the break through for me. It was easy after that.

Thanks for this! Question: Have you found a source for replacement elastic? I can't find one, not on their Amazon store nor their web site, nor anywhere else online!

[@MusicalKinetics]

Hey Tony. This is a great question. I have actually found one. Many months after this video, my elastic got slack again. What I ended up using was simple elastic rope that tailors use or the kind wrist band designers use. So you can get it in a DIY shop, or tailoring shop, or Amazon. You then cut the elastic rope to the length you need and tie it with a simple knot. It works really well. Here's a link to one I found on Amazon. Though, I got the one I'm using locally, this could help you. Make sure to check the thickness of the rope if that matters to you. amzn.to/3JhbSth. Let me know how this goes. Best of luck and thank you for reaching out.
