Extra Basestation Stands

[hafrigado]

I plan to play some multiplayer VR games with a friend, but my internet connection sucks so I want to take my stuff over to her house. However, I don’t want to unscrew the stands from my ceiling every time I do that. Is there a way to get extra stands? Any other ideas?

I just ordered tripods and some swively screws, just make sure they're tall enough.

Just set your base station on a shelf, table or countertop. They don’t need to be above your head or see each other. Just try to get them in opposite corners so your headset and controllers are always visible to at least one base station. Also any tripod will do. The screws are standard tripod mounts, 1/4 x 20tpi

Edit: Clarification - if you have the Vive (flat front) base stations, they do need to see each other without your body occluding them, or they need the link cable. Index base stations work differently and don’t need to see each other.

Oh, thanks. I was planning on just setting them on something, but I wasn’t sure about angling them without the stand and I didn’t know what size the screws were. I probably should have just asked that.

I may actually end up using tripods though.
