Device to allow tape changes on A1

I'm not sure if it was on this forum or not that I read about it, but I am looking for a device that will allow me to switch tapes while my A1 is bolted onto anything (glidecam, tri and monopod etc)

I followed the link to this guys website and he sells them for something like 24.95, but lost the link


Any help would be appreciated

hello jason,

know what you are talking about, but can't remember the link either.
was a machined u shaped alu block. with 1/4 to camcorder and 1/4 threat from tripod plate.

had a small sony trv 730 for years, tape drive broke finally, the only bad part on that camcorder was the bottom load.
