Heavy Duty Lighting Stand Bag
Chris Poynter:
Hi Everyone!
I have the Duratruss (i.e. Global Truss) DT-3900L crank stand and I am looking for a bag to carry it in.
The crank stand is 6-ft long (folded) and weighs 45 lbs.
I have been using the Global Truss ST-132 Crank Stand Bag for about a year, but it's not very heavy-duty and since the crank stand I'm using is quite heavy, the bag is ripping apart, zippers have broken, etc.
Here's a link to the stand: http://www.globaltruss.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ItemNumber=603&MainId=31&Category=105
Here's a link to the current bag: http://www.globaltruss.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ItemNumber=340&MainId=9&Category=56
Thanks,

I go to Chicago Canvas when working on items. The heavy canvas with tent like stitching may be a better build and more durable. You might find a Sail shop near you that can do something from the old one and custom build a tough and durable answer.

For any stands I have that do not fit into the standard On Stage Stands speaker stand bag

I use the bigger size which accommodates tall speaker and lighting stands. I have 3 of them and they have held up pretty well over the last few years, getting a bit threadbare now but the zips all still work and they have decent padding.

Debbie, I use those as well for mic stands when I only need a few (as opposed to the big case), but they are not long enough for the folded length of the stand Chris has.
Chris, looks like we're practically neighbours! I use the same bags as you, and although I have nothing useful to contribute here (sorry) I too am interested in something better so I'll be paying attention to this thread.
My ST-132's are slowly chewing through those bags. I don't use the handles anymore and just sling the stand over my shoulder but the bag still takes a beating on site and in the van.
