Stand adjustment
I need a little assist. I just got a tripod stand for Tasha and I can't seem to get the adjustment right so her feet are almost touching the floor and the back rest is in the small of her back. I can position the rest correctly but the lowest I can get that position is with her feet about 6" off the ground. I'd like her have her stand as close to her natural height (4'10) be as possible and not be 5'4"
The only thing I can do is lower the brace that hold the neck bolt hanger; but if I do that, I can only replace one of the screws to secure it to the stand.
Yes I read the directions. They suck. Is it possible they sent me the wrong stand for a Boy Toy? Or are the stands the same for all RD body types and BT's?
HELP!

Re: Stand adjustment
From the RD website.
Just to confirm it's the same one.
Description
This is an adjustable tripod type stand, which means it will collapse down to a very compact size for easy storage and/or transportation. The doll shown in these photo is a Boy Toy, but with proper setup, the stand is sturdy enough to support the largest and heaviest RealDolls (body 10 and the males).
I'd pm a member w/ a RD or BT w/ stand setup and/or email Abyss.
hope you get a solution asap.
/g'day.

Thanks- yes it is the same stand- I got it directly from Phoenix Studios (BT) and yes I have Pm'd a few members I know, waiting for their response(s) Meanwhile I thought I'd put it out to the large group as well.

Yes, pin is removed everything is as low as it can go. I'll post a pic later.

Re: Stand adjustment
However I have come up with a solution. It's a little complicated, but it solves other issues at the same time.
Problem - A floating Azure Pad at the lowest setting, note the pin is not supporting anything My solution is to raise the floor around the stand
An 8" high spacer I took an old 2' x 4' shelf and cut a slot for the leg Azures feet now touch the floor Now the stand is raised so the pin is in the second set of holes and the pad can be set much lower Next I covered the old shelf with a green sheet, I also covered the front leg. I do have another sheet for the back legs and a cover for the main support pole, jut couldn't find them. If I ever get around to learning Photoshop I'll be better able to add backgrounds (I think)
Final solution also gets Azure up so that she's almost eye to eye with me. Oh it looks like Azure wants to play, see you.

Re: Stand adjustment
I actually thought I'd be missing out if I didn't get the stand they make. With the current stand I have, I get the same result anyways.
thx Oosik.

Now that is what I call an "on top of a box" solution! Seriously though, Oosik. Brilliant job, mate.0osik wrote:My solution is to raise the floor around the stand
