Well it says it holds 120kg, but it doesn't say who the manufacturer is.

Don't know if I would trust it or not, seems OK.

What's up with your Ultimax Paul?

nothing, i just need a stand to put lights on away from where i,ll be stood, so not attached to stand.

That looks like the skytec one, I used to have it, the truss is excellent but the stands are utter cra*p. I bought some wind up ones and used it on them with 4 abstract xp's and 4 colour changers with no problems at all

um, wonder if i can make something to hold my ultimax wind up stands.

What do you mean Paul?

Something to hold the stands if i dont use the deck stand. Maybe a concrete slab.:D

The guy at Ultimax said to me when I bought my stand that it 'probably' could and I do remember having a catalouge with them in, but not sure about it now - ring Andy Tain at Ultimax, he'll be able to give you some ideas.
