[QUOTE="Jake in NC, post: 43743, member: 878"] ..Brent.. Sure thing.. I'd like to see a pic of it.. That mating surface would be the "tricky" part.. It'd probably take a real machinist to figure it out.. There always seems to be one little detail that makes any solution difficult.. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] I've goofed around with PanaVise type gadgets also.. Almost, but no ceeegar.. Hehehe.. ..338-378.. Actually, the main tripod I've been using is fiberglass.. I like it for it's rigidity and its pretty quiet.. The main drawback is cost.. They're a little more than the $89 aluminum jobs over at Home Depot.. But you can see where being able to step on that little foot pad on the back of the leg and just loosening the lever for totally free up/down motion would be key.. Especially in mountainous areas where ya might havta go from top to bottom quickly.. Not to mention being easier on those frozen mitts.. Hehehe.. ..And one more thing.. It there a Butch [I]and[/I] a Glen in your camp.?? Thanks... d:^) JiNC [/QUOTE]
