Dan,

There are a number of different makes of flash mounts you can get that are threaded. You might also be interested in getting a slave unit that will do what you want if you put tape over the contacts, and also fire the flash without wires (full dump, or whatever setting you put it on in auto). You might have to file down the top edge of the metal on the attachment slightly as the T20 and T32 feet seem to be slightly different in specs than other brands. It isn't a difficult or complicated thing to do however. Check your local camera store.

 Not specifically OM; is there such a thing as a non-OM T20 connector that I
could use to tripod-mount a T32 that's firing from the TTL cable?

 Currently, I can mount the T20 and generic non-OM flash I've got on the
little T20 connectors, put them on mini tripods using the screw holes in the
bottom of the connectors, and put the T32 in the hot shoe, and everything is
under control; what I'd like to do is put the T32 off-camera as well. I
don't need a connector for that, it's got the TTL socket on the front -- but
the problem is that I don't have any way to keep the T32 in position (other
than sitting it on the ground and hoping..) -- is there some sort of generic
hotshoe-with-tripod-mount thing that I could use to help here?

 thanks,

 -- dan
