Have one made by Vixen about 8 years old. Great tripod.
Has tolerated a lot of abuse over the years.
Light weight, sturdy and looks nice too.
What I would like to do is find a GoTo mount
to replace the Vixen mechanical AltAz now mounted
on it as the Wooden tripod is very stable.
I think Vixen still sells these

With Al out of business, does anyone know if there is a source for nice
wood tripods?
Thanks!
