No problems since. You can by one from QRS or you can make your own. length of steel electrical conduit length of all-thread that just fits inside a matching nut and washer a length of 2x2 self adhesive felt lamp bottom covers some type of flexible adhesive like PL400 cut the 2x2 into two reasonable lengths and drill one corner to accept conduit/all-thread and adhesive apply the self adhesive felt to the business sides of the 2x2s and you have an adjustable brace.
