Tripod

Another question... Some time ago there was a device that was featured on here that converted banksticks into a tripod. Could any kind soul help me in finding the product?
 
hi neil, what your looking for is a gardener camera tripod head mate, one where 3 bank sticks screw in the head and theres a center hole in top where either your camera or rodrest top screws into mate:)
it works just fine with no bulky tripod to carry

:p That's some set up, I know the Trent lads use similar, but by immediate needs are for something less bulky and smaller for a particular peg that is awkward to get a bankstick in.

Good for the Lower 7 though.

the scud aint a tripod setup, the triad is also comes with a hook under the head for weighting down

Had a look at the blurb John and the scud seems to be the one that might work, although with me asking for a tri-pod set up the the triad would be the ideal fit. Looks like the triad would be the weigh masters choice in the club matches in hanging the big avons from? :)

Scud = missile = launcher, blimey...
 
neil orionally it was for making up a firm camera tripod ;) me not taking a camera anywhere it seemed a good pocket sized tripod mate, either way im glad your problems sorted:)
