Description
I have recently purchased the Sota Beams 7 Meter mast and the drive on stand. When you put the mast into the drive on stand there was too much play for my liking so I designed a mast support. The mast support is printed in two halves. (Printed upside down with no supports, your milage may vary) One goes either side of the mast when placing into the drive on stand. The support has a slight taper. Easy to remove and supports the mast.
I also didnt like the fact that the base of the mast can move around in the drive on stand, so I created the mast base. This drops into the drive on stand and both will only fit the 7meter Whip 7000 mast and drive on support supplied by Sota Beams. Links below. The base also functions out side of the drive on stand when out and about with back pack. If you are guying your mast you can put the base on the floor and pop in 3 tent pegs so that when the mast is guyed the base will not kick out.
Hope this helps someone.
