Ken,

It sounds like you need a Manfrotto 234 swivel head.  It's a simple single-axis
pivot, actually, not a ball head.  It doesn't cost very much, and is very
convenient on my monopod. The 234 is a non-quick-release version; there is also
a QR version, but I don't know the number.  The female thread is 3/8", so you
might have to get a 3/8"-1/4" threaded adapter as well.  The male thread (camera
end) is convertible for 1/4" or 3/8".

regards,

Mahlon

On the monopod, I'm stuck at horizontal.  I'd really like to be able to
flip from horizontal to vertical (and be rock solid in either
configuration.

Surely such a gadget must exist.  Any pointers?

...a hinge would do...
