I am selling three (3) tripods suitable for terrestrial or astronomical equipment: binoculars, spotting scopes, telescopes, cameras, video recorders, survey equipment, artistic equipment or anything else you can think of.

Head has a 13-inch travel. Includes level bubble, locking mechanisms for swivel head and head height adjustment and 2 different pieces of hardware with different thread pitches for device mounting. An elegant and well-engineered piece of equipment in excellent working condition. I had been using it with an equatorial wedge for astronomy. $200
