David pro 2 pole extension

Post by raul_sbd »

Hi everyone!

Can anyone recommend a pole extension for the original Davis tripod?

I have it mounted on the tripod but due to some tree obstruction I need it higher so I was thinking on a pole extension.. this is slat I currently have..

Have you thought about contacting a local fabricator?

I did back in the winter. I drew a small plan of how I wanted my stand/mount with all of the lengths etc. I submitted it to a local shop who fabricate trailers, and he welded one up within a day. Steel box section, which I sanded down and painted.

I concreted mine in.

Just thought I'd throw the idea out there, as you could save a little bit of money.
