looking for info on how you did and what results you achieved. |

If I buy a Vixen GP-DX, I'm going to ditch the tripod and make my own SET of piers, of varying heights, from good-quality wood 4x4's. I'm afraid that's about as far I may go on that subject. Alan |

You actually want the pier to start on the ground if possible. A frame
house is a very rickety structure for doing telescoping. If the house has a second story porch, a pier can easily be done to the ground without any problems but if you are in the house, doing a pier from the basement can be a bit of a problem, especially since you don't want the floors of each level to touch the pier - you don't have to be very distant but there has to be some clearance or the floor will touch the pier and vibrations will be transmitted to the pier. -- Bob May Losing weight is easy!
