[QUOTE="Stephen Howard, post: 333283, member: 41"] I'd agree the K&M isn't as well made, but I'm a bit puzzled as to the proper way to use a Hercules stand. Help me out a bit: Remove from bag. Pull out legs until they lock in position. Lift riser until it locks into position. Flip bell clamp over into working position. Check bow support is down and in position. Place sax on stand, ensuring bell flare fits snugly between clamps and bow rest on support. Give sax a bit of a jiggle to test. Remove sax from stand. Play blinding solo. Wait until applause has died down. Place sax back on stand, as before. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong - as every other stand I've owned has worked in more or less the same fashion. [/QUOTE]
