Made these up and introduced them at the Wilderness Gathering and they sold like hot cakes. So thought it was about time I got around to sticking them up here.

This is what I call a pocket tripod, consists of a ring attached to a length of 80cm chain attached to a hook. All you need to do is add three sticks to create your own tripod when out in the woods, or in the back garden for that matter. Can also be used on a hanging bar.

All three bits are attached so you cannot loose anything. Height of the cooking pot is easily adjusted by hooking the bottom hook onto any of the links in the chain. Weighs only 200g and comes with the green pouch. Can easily fit into your pocket or cooking pot for storage and travel.

Cost is a mere £12 + £2 P&P

Just send me a PM if you would like one and I can send relevant payment details.

All the best,
Tim

The tripod ring arrived this morning Tim, great idea and nice small size in the wee bag, easy to carry anywhere, looks great :)

Cheers, Paul

Thanks Paul, enjoy and let me know how you get on! Works best using three sticks that only just fit through the ring to begin with or three larger sticks and whittle the ends down slightly. This will help prevent slipping and through playing you will soon find the method to get them all locked together!
