[QUOTE="Dick Rees, post: 114983, member: 16"] Re: Tripod stand question John... I use the following stuff. The strapping I like is vinyl coated so it doesn't scratch and the drywall screws are fine-thread. I anchor tripods such as "studio booms" for theater and such where I need them to be rock-solid and stay in position despite max lateral boom extension. I shoot the screws into the joints between the pieces of hardwood flooring. When you back them out you can't even see the spot unless you know where it was and look very hard. A single piece of strapping looped over or through the legs will dog it down nicely thus minimizing the footprint needed for stability. Or you can haul weights... [/QUOTE]
