Hi AG

I'm sure there is, a quick fix,  attach your carry bag or case to the tripod
once its setup- it adds weight, dampening and stability.  I like light gear,
and I may get dumped on but I was looking at buying a Manfrotto 159PRO with
a 141RC Head, but although less stable, the Velbon  'Sherpa 250' was more
what i wanted to truck around so I bought it at about half the price. The
geared column has a screw at both ends  so I'm trying to devise a bracket
that I can use on the bottom of the column to attach my carry case as
ballast- any ideas on this, or is there already something I can use?

Thanks Gord
