[QUOTE="Brent, post: 43741, member: 99"] Jake, I was at Alaska Industrial Hardware the other day and was looking at surveyor tripods there. The didn't have the flat top tripods in stock then but had the other type I'm wondering if you've looked at. The type I'm talking about are actually rounded on top, like an upsidedown bowl, and look like they could be the perfect setup if one had a matching "top" piece that mated perfectly to the shape of it. Fit the rest platform to it and it may be really solid. Seems they are made that way to level the laser head without having to level the "top" plate itself. I'm not sure how large in diameter the ball and socket design of the Hart system is but the head on the tripod I'm talkin about is about 5" around and may offer far superior stability. I can get a pic of one when I'm over there today, and ask about matching tops for them if you like? I think they were $88 for the sweet aluminum tripods. [/QUOTE]
