Now that I've had a night's sleep and a fresh cup of coffee I've
revisited this point and realized this Red Wing QuickStand is the "heavy
duty" version (which I've never seen before and didn't know existed)
which extends to 12.5 feet and weighs some 7.5 pounds. Unfortunately,
this is not a functional replacement for the original, much shorter and
lighter unit. The original "QuickStand" only reaches to about 7 or 8
feet and only weighs a couple of pounds. Since it's so light and
compact it's very handy for quickly and easily picking up with one hand
and moving around in tight quarters such as doing table shots at a
dinner event or moving around to different groups during a cocktail hour.
Durn! I thought I'd found it.
