Or shall I just chalk it up to
experience, strip the stands for usable parts, and go buy some new ones?

Yes.

They'll be all loose & wiggly-wobbly if you tap them & rethread, so ****
it... get new ones. It'll cost you less than the toolings if you don't have
them already. Besides... do you really WANT to put a $3,000 mic on a stand
that could act like an oilfield pump in the Permain basin in the mid-70's
at any moment?
