If I put the mounting arm out of the stand into a rack clamp, it will crush the C shaped arm and it will never fit into the stand again.
Has anyone else come across this problem? Are there rack mounts for C shaped tubing? The only thing I can come up with is to use a short cymbal arm mount on the rack and attach the tom mounting bar to that, but I really don't think it could take the weight of all 3 Roto toms.
Any suggestions?
