Default Camera stand made easy

Bloodcrick's camera stand gave me an idea about making my own. I never would have thought about this without him making one first. This thing was rediculously easy to make and will really come in handy since I usually hunt alone. Up until now whenever I've wanted to take pics of myself and whatever animal I killed I would have to balance my digital camera on my backpack or 4-wheeler or something. You get the idea. Dan showed how to make one out of arrow parts. Since I didn't have any arrows laying around at work yesterday I made this one. I started with 1/4" threaded rod and cut 3 equal pieces each about 14" long. I then just screwed some rod couplings on to connect the parts including one to be used as a jam nut at the bottom of the camera. I had some olive drab paint sitting on a shelf so I figured what the heck. When put together and screwed into the camera it is quite sturdy. It breaks down and fits into my pack or under the seat of my 4-wheeler easily. Thanks for the idea Bloodcrick!
