that thread is exactly what I followed to make mine. bought some cute little rainbow ribbon cable, some snap-on connectors and voila! surprisingly easy to put together. Thankfully Monome and Mannequins have their I2C pinout the same up to rotating the connector!

Looks like a great environment to create in. I want to be there now-

Bought guitar hooks a couple weeks ago, just in time to go out of town for work. Got home yesterday, and this morning…hung guitars! I’m irrationally terrified that the anchors will fail (they won’t, but I’m still nervous)

Setup for tonight in Richmond, VA. Triggering my Mangrove with a contact mic on a random sequence. Very fun times.

I had two pull out. Both were supporting heavier electrics, and thankfully a desk below took the brunt of the bounce each time.

Anchors should go in studs, not in drywall alone.

(which has all the ‘well that is obvious’ in the world about it, and that’s what I thought as I checked the guitars for damaged, both times… which begs the question how I let it happen twice… sigh).

I use these instead:

Looks better, can mount guitars on an angle, and distributes the weight across two anchor points.

Yeah! I like 'em - I have two from work. One stays on my desk, the other travels with me to theaters when I’m in production. They’re geared heavily towards gamers, so there’s a lot of native support for Twitch, YouTube, Twitter, etc, but the general system actions are mostly just keystrokes. A Stream Deck plus Keyboard Maestro starts getting into some interested territory, though… They detect what application you’re currently working in, so you can set up custom buttons per application, which is handy. So I have a general default layout, then layouts for Logic, for QLab (theater sound playback software), for Excel, etc.

They’re serialized, so when you plug one in, the Stream Deck software knows which one’s which and can load a custom profile (button layout) for it…which is great if you are using more than one at a time, but when you want to have one at work and one at home that look and act the same…less useful.

Oh those are cooool. I might have to keep those in mind. These hangers seem pretty sturdy, plus they have two anchors per hanger, so fingers crossed. My fear is mostly that I’ve hung them so high up because of the synth and the standing desk, so they have a long way to fall if they ever do fall.

How is it going up on the hill? Glad to know there are more modularists at Cornell!

New workspace, with a new wooden case I made over the weekend. Such a dream!

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but - anchors should only go in drywall. That’s what they’re for. If you can access the studs, you can just use wood screws. I love going to the hardware store.

What’s the module in the upper center? Its white space looks fun :grinning:

#3162

That’s a modified Korg Monotron Delay – it was my first “module,” and even though I’ve surrounded it with high-ticket items, it’s still the first module I use in any patch. The gritty lo-fi filter, and the equally lo-fi fake Space Echo, are 99% of my aesthetic.

Some anchors are definitely better than others though, and some walls are not well suited for anchors.

Toggle bolts are much better than push-in plastic anchors, that’s for sure. Even if it feels like you have to drill an enormous hole in your wall to mount them.

Sorry, poor language. I meant ‘anchoring system for the hanger’ not drywall anchor.
