Would locking washers help?

Yeah I tried that too, but it didn't help at all.

How about using multiple strands of very heavy wire (maybe copper?) and clamp them together at each end to prevent sliding, then run them through a tube or the spinal canal to construct and firm support. Or maybe even a shower hose with lead melted with, but it would be hella heavy.

That sounds like an easy idea to test out. If I can get my hands on some heavy duty wire I'll try that out sometime soon.

Thanks man, I just woke up and you are actually the first to wish me that.

EDIT: On the drive to work I realized of coarse you would be the 1st to wish me a happy 30. You live downunder so your something like 16 hours ahead of us yanks.

I was at the hardware store today and saw this:

It is a 3/4 inch flexible copper water heater line.
I was trying to bend it and it did not bend easily I wondered if one could place a cpvc water line inside it and then it would be even more rigid yet it should still bend.

Not sure if it could support the weight of the monitor but I would try it if I was you unless of course you already have.
Of couse the nuts would have to go but you could sweat solder two or three of these together.

Sorry I've been offline for awhile. Sorry for the delays.

I'll look into some more ways that I might be able to get the spine working this weekend, I hope.

Wannabeamodder did you find that piece in the plumbing section or what?

Do you think I might be able to find that at a Lowe's or HomeDepot?
