We receive a recent inquiry looking for a shaving mirror with a flexible arm and suction cup mount.  We can do that!

Flexible arm shaving mirror with suction cut mount
Our Suction Cup is designed for lightweigh devices so we recommend our Small Round Mirror (10.07 ounces) combined with our 13" Flexible Gooseneck Arm.  Our popular Suction Cup Mount attaches well to smooth surfaces such as mirrors.
The 13" flexible arm offers the perfect combination of light weight, flexibility and reach for this application.  It is available in black paint or covered with black or gray silicone.

Portable Monitor Supported with Flexible Gooseneck Arm While Traveling

A customer recently traveled around to various locations with his laptop and an additional portable monitor.  He had purchased our 18" Super-Duty flexible gooseneck arm, Megaclamp and Camera Ball Head.

The Megaclamp worked well as he could easily it attach it to desks and tables wherever he was staying.  The Megaclamp can attach to flat objects between 3/8" up to 2-5/8" thick.

We don't have information on his portable monitor, however the 18" Super-Duty flexible gooseneck arm can support up to 2-1/2 lbs in the weakest orientation (horizontal) without bending.  As shown oriented vertically in the picture above it can support much more weight.

This particular portable monitor is "tripod ready" which means it can attach to a standard 1/4"-20 tripod mount or our Camera Ball Head:

 The Camera Ball Head can tilt up to 90 degree.  Given the flexibility of our gooseneck arms you can pretty much position your portable monitor wherever you want.

Custom-Made Flexible Gooseneck Arm Bedside Reading Lamps

A crafty customer recently sent us pictures of his custom bedside flexible arm reading lamps built with SnakeClamp components:

Custom bedside flexible arm reading lamps built with SnakeClamp components

 

While the lamp head is not ours, these were made with our Square Base, 12" Rigid Arm and 24" Flexible Gooseneck Arms. To allow for internal wiring our Lamp Nipples were also used.

Here is another view:

Note that our Square Base does not come with mounting holes (but our smaller Plate Mount does), so obviously if you want to build your own custom reading lamps you will need some basic metalworking skills!

These custom lamps just look awesome!  If you have pictures of your project built with SnakeClamp components please send them to support @ snakeclamp.com so that we can inspire others to build cool stuff.

Portable Gaming Monitor Supported by SnakeClamp Flexible Gooseneck Arm

Today we have some pictures submitted by a gaming software developer.  Although the ASUS ROG Strix XG17AHP portable gaming monitor came with a tripod stand, this customer wanted a solution that didn't take up valuable desk space.  So he turned to SnakeClamp:

ASUS ROG Strix XG17AHP portable gaming monitor mounted on SnakeClamp flexible gooseneck tube arm and Megaclamp

This monitor has a standard 1/4"-20 tripod thread on the back so it can easily be attached to our Camera Ball Head.  An added benefit of our ball head is that you can tilt (up to 90 degrees) and swivel it in combination with the flexibility of our  gooseneck tube arms.  The monitor is shown here supported by our 18" Heavy-Duty Flexible Gooseneck in black.

This customer chose our Megaclamp mounting base option which can attach to either a round object such as a pipe or railing or a flat object such as shown here:

In this photo you can see that the ASUS portable gaming monitor is attached to the desktop with our Megaclamp with

 Additionally the Megaclamp has two mounting holes so that the flexible gooseneck arm can be attached either to the top or the side depending on your requirements.

UPDATE: Another customer duplicated this setup and discovered that at 2.33 lbs the monitor is a little too heavy for the 18" Heavy-Duty flexible gooseneck.  This monitor actually requires our 18" Super-Duty gooseneck which can support 2-1/2 lbs.
