Junior,

Here is a link to Universal Radio's page of Heil booms, stands, and bases.

http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/mics/heil.html


Looks like the base that came along with my free mic many years ago is 
discontinued.    it was a heavy metal base plate with a 6 inch riser. 
on top of that went a large plastic  spring loaded clip that grabbed the mic
like a giant clothes pin.

I wouldn't want to hold this mic in my hand all day.   you'll look like 
one of the Supremes.

I got an e-mail from cheapham today.  If you are interested in a boom, they
have what seems to be a nice one for $50, but  you would need to find a clip
to  screw on to the boom and  clamp the mic.  Maybe they have that as well.
