Here awhile back I was talking about a cradle for a tripod to shoot off of and I was thinking of making my own version. I know this is not a professional piece and the looks and cost reflect it! I found the cradle on EBAY while goofing off one night and searching random words like tactical and such. It cost me just under $6 TYD. I already had the tripod, now it's not a fantastic tripod, but sturdy enough. I don't remember the cost, but I know it wasn't alot because I'm cheap! So I had some krylon in the shop and this was what I ended up with. I figure all in all I might have $50 bucks in it, but I wouldn't bet on it. I'd bet the tripod was only like $20 or something.
It works very well sitting. I haven't tried it standing yet, but it feels sturdy enough that it should work just fine. I figure all in all it's better than nothing for an off handed type of shooting where maybe I can't get proned out. It also straps right to my bug out bag where it doesn't get in the way and it doesn't weigh very much either! What do you think?
