Q: 8. can you mount a monitor arm to the matte box? it looks like there are 1/4 20 holes on top

A: While it would theoretically be possible to connect certain monitor arms onto one of the threaded holes (taps) in the Wooden Camera UMB-1 Universal Matte Box (Pro) B&H# WO202100), matte boxes (including this one) are not especially stable nor secure enough for such usage. Moreover, since it attaches to the front of the lens, any instability caused by the weight of the arm and monitor could translate into movement that could impair the stability of the shot. While there may be use cases when it could be done, any camera movement with such a setup could result in a shaky image.

Q: 9. Does this UMB-1 come with the foam for a Pelican 1550 case? Similar to other UMB-1 packages on other sites?

A: Yes it comes with just the foam

Q: 10. What is the weight of the matte box in it's different configurations?

A: As you see it, the box the UMB-1 comes in weighs 8.2 lbs / 3.7195 kg. I would say that in in full studio configuration, it would be slightly less than that. In Clamp-On configuration, once you remove the rod holder and not use the metal flags, the stripped down matte box would weigh in the neighborhood of 3-4 lbs / 1.3-1.8 kg.
