This may or may not be associated with music stands or equipment. I can’t remember.

I just emptied and re-did my music/video room, and found this bracket in a small box with no labels or anything. I can’t remember what it’s for. I think it’s either audio or video related, but it doesn’t seem to match any of my mic or equipment stands, though it might be. It’s devoid of any branding or part/serial numbers. No markings of any kind.

It folds like this:

There’s a sliding mount screw on the bottom:

Thanks!

Looks like a cheap one of these that can fold down for transportation.

Glad I could help! 😊

I have one that attaches to a camera cage and immediately knew what it was.

You were so fast. This community is becoming as fast as Reddit! 😆

Looks like tripod equipment, either for photography or some other type of common thing. Some mics, video cameras, etc use that kind of mounting

It doesn’t seem to fit with either of my tripods, but that helps narrow it down. Maybe I’m missing a piece?

Thank you, that gives me a direction to search.
