Jerry's post on the DIY sand bags reminded me of another trick that I use that is not as expensive as store bought sand bags. I have sand bags that I bought years ago. Then I realized I could buy wrist and ankle weights for less than the empty bags sold at the photo stores.
The ankle and wrist weights come with velcro and are very easy to attach to stands, tripods, or boom arms. And they are inexpensive and you don't have to load them with sand. The DIY sand bags are most likely the cheapest. But for those who don't have a sewing machine or know someone willing to take the time for them. The wrist and ankle weights work great. And are a fairly inexpensive alternative to the over priced sand bags sold at the photo stores. :thumbup:
Plus they are multi use. Could actually use them for exercise, or a good door stop. :mrgreen:
