This slips onto a conventional brass or nylon cross rest head to make a spider or just to give you a slightly different bridge. You can't carry your own spider around with you, and I've played in some clubs where the spiders were dire. Usually the cross rests aren't too bad. Using this you can use the same technique all the time, no matter what is on offer from the club, which should help with your consistency.
