dreamsinger Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I use an X3 bean pod on a mic stand adapter. My only gripe is that if you look at the rubber locating plugs crosseyed they pop out and disappear. Superglue didn't work, RTV didn't work. Anybody have any luck keeping them in? Can I get a bag of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind if they weren't apparently designed to fall off and create a neverending repeating market for replacements. The adhesives don't work. I think I'll crank up the lathe and make some tapered aluminum plugs that will screw on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 wouldn't be that hard to just get some right size bolts... then slip little bits of rubber hose on the protruding parts really... probably less than 10 bucks and you could experiment with the size and get a nice snug, secure fit.

Excellent idea. I was overthinking it with the idea that they had to be tapered like the rubber ones. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meandot Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Just ridiculous. Can't get these in UK. I don't know why we put up with rubbish. They are not fit for purpose. We shouldn't have to pay for more of them or spend time and money on a creative solution. We have paid for thr product already. Very poor show Line6. Also removed support for the product line as well due to obsolescence. I would never spend serious money on their products due to risk of suffering their f*** you attitude.

olequijote Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I know this is an old topic, but I got one of these POD holders that was missing two of the rubber feet, so I was looking around, but I ended up coming up with my own solution: By four standoffs (you'll know what it is when you see it below), all 6-32 thread size and male-female, 1/4" hex. Two will be 2" long, and two will be 1.5" long. You'll need to round the edges of the standoffs for about 3/4" inch of the female end. I did it by putting each one in a drill chuch and spinning it against a grinding wheel, though the same could be done with a drill and, say, 80 grit sand paper or just with the sand paper. With a #2 phillips screwdriver, remove the four screws from the POD and screw the 2" standoffs into top end of the POD and the 1.5" standoffs in the bottom end. Screw the screws into the female ends for safe keeping. Your rounded portions of the standoffs will slide through the holes in the POD holder and create a very secure connection. If you have the sandpaper or a grinder, the cost will be around 2-4 dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
