My version of Becksvoort music stand IV is great on hard flooring but when you put it on carpet with a heavy binder of music it gets a bit tippy. I decided to try to move the balance point by weighting the opposite side with lead fishing weights. I was able to put a half pound of lead into my slot. I made the slot using my new Bosch palm router with a 1/4" up spiral. It was a bit tricky since the base of the stand is angled. It cut the slot fine but the edge guide wouldn't hold its position till I added some larger washers and a lock washer. My solution worked and I managed to not destroy the stand in the process.
