[Harp-L] ergonomic neck racks

[Chris Reynolds <c_reynolds2571@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the ergonomic neck racks are back in stock. I apologize to those that have been waiting for them to get back in stock but developing the new clamps took longer than I'd hoped. Now after several weeks of design, prototyping, testing, and making new production molds they are back in stock.   http://www.builderofstuff.com/enr.html  The new clamp design is quicker to open and close, the jaws get a better grip on the harp, and the jaws of the clamps are lined with neoprene rubber to make sure your harp doesn't slip as well as protecting it from any marks from being clamped in the rack. There are also some new pictures on the webpage for those who are curious about the new clamp design. The parts are fully interchangeable with one another as the clamp is made up of two identical parts. Also to ensure that you're never left with a clamp with stripped threads, both the stationary part and the pivot part are drilled and
 threaded in the same place, so if you happen to strip one of the threads you can remove the screw from that part, switch it to the other piece and the stationary part then becomes the pivoting part. The crossbar now has a flat spot milled along the length of it as well. This gives the locking screw on the stationary jaw a place to seat and keeps the clamps more secure with less tightening on the screw. I hope these improvements will be well received and help in making the ENR more user friendly.
