Can the base of the clamp be removed and reattached? There is only a small gap between the desk and cubical wall,and I don't think the clamp will fit.

Hello David,The base of the clamp can be removed. The whole base cannot, just the bottom of the clamp. I hope my answer was helpful.Taylor W.VIVO

I think that would work just fine. The clamp is designed for any horizontal surface, so if you are clamping it to a shelf instead of a desk top, it should work fine

It is not removable by design; however, the handle can be folded flat, rather than protruding at a 90° angle. I have used the desk for a year and have not found it to be a nuisance or troublesome.

Great question. I actually literally chose to break it off because, with my set-up, I needed to use the ARM SUPPORT part as my mouse pad! So yes, you can just break it off without damaging the rest of the item. My guess is you'll need to do your own individualized refinements when setting this up on your desk, but it IS a unique item and, with some work, it did accomplish a goal for me that I couldn't have achieved without it.

I'm not positive you could lift the work piece absolutely vertically due to the screw/rubber piece projecting beyond the clamp base. It will depend on how far the screw/rubber piece have been advanced toward the table surface which will depend on the thickness of the work piece itself. The distance from the clamp base to the edge of the work piece is also a factor and could give enough clearance if you didn't need for the clamping point to be farther from the edge of the work piece.

The basic setup for it is to be clamped to something. I am not sure of the material that you have on the side of your desk, but the bottom portion of the clamp could be omitted and instead you drill holes through the side of your desk to then bolt it through the side instead of clamping to the top. If you do that make sure that the desk material is substantial enough to hold the weight of the stand and your monitors. If not, it would be easy enough to add a waste board inside your desk to spread the weight and make it stronger.

Would be difficult. The metal supports for the desk's surface run underneath the entire desk. You could possibly attach one that descends as you pull it out.

Mine is attached with about the same amount of desk space and is very stable even though part (maybe 1/4) of the clamp flange is beyond the edge of the desk. Since the center of the clamp is under the desk, it works quite well.

It looks like you can unscrew the flexible clamp, but you'll still have a round raised slot about 1/8" high on the bottom of the cylinder. I'd try to unscrew it to make sure but I need the clamp and don't want to mess it up, sorry.

A question for the manufacturer, I suspect, as I saw nothing in the online data to suggested a weighted base exists. I wanted a wall-mount so I screwed a 1.5 x 1.5 x 6" block to the wall horizontally, and clamped the lamp to the block.If your desktop is truly too deep for the clamp, you might try screwing a block to the back of the desk and clamping to the block.

The clamp has an adjustable back plate that should accommodate a 2 3/4 desk. I measured the back plate and it 4 1/2 long. During installation you just mound the screw plate to the set of hole in the back plate that is the best fit for you desk thickness and then just tighten down the thumb bolts.

yes, but you have to have sufficient overhang for the clamp to seat properly. I had to cut a hole in the side of the desk (no prob fort me because the desk was against a wall) to allow the clamp to seat correctly.

It looks to be 2 inches deep, and looks like it will work on a desk surface up to 1.5 inches thick. The bottom portion of the clamp (the part that screws to tighten) also has a roughly 2 inch pad. So it has a fair amount of surface area to hold it in place.

M.N. Most tables will have a gap between the table halves. The clamp is designed to be wide enough to connect both table halves and is over 1" wide. Thanks for considering STIGA!

The clamp has space for about a two inch thick desk, and the clamp itself is about two inches deep.The head rotates 180 degrees up and down and sideways.Hope this helps. It is a great tool and the lighting and magnification is great.

No. Sadly that was very similar to my issue and wouldn't clamp for my table. It pretty much has to be a flat surface like pictured or it won't work. If I was in your situation -- I wouldn't buy it. Best of luck though.

I am not sure as both my desks already had holes in them for cords and such, but here is what I found on their website:Mounting Options: Desk Clamp attaches to surface edge .4" to 2.4" (10 to 60 mm) thick; Grommet Mount attaches through surface holes .31" to 2" (8 to 50 mm) wide and up to 3" (76 mm) thick http://www.ergotron.com/ProductsDetails/tabid/65/PRDID/523/language/en-US/Default.aspx
