What is a Scissor Clamp?



Knoptop has a new segment! Departing slightly from his Quick FX format, Dave shares with us things we didn't know, we didn't know. In this first episode, he shows us what a scissor clamp does and how we can hang lights from it. Okay, you have to have "real" lights for this to work (my hacked work lights won't cut it here), but if you didn't know you could hang lights from a drop ceiling, now you do.

Nice...always fun to learn what I didn't know from someone that can make knowing much more interesting (like the Ninja angle...oh yeah...)

I don't see why you'd need "real" lights for this. Sure, the post is made for a certain type of mount, but I don't see why anything else couldn't be made to clamp onto it. I've been looking for a way to mount several small softboxes to my bedroom's drop-ceiling that I can leave in place, and I think these might be the ticket.
