I dug out the short column for my 3021 tripod and find it to be 28mm 
diameter and about 150mm long (tube only).  B&H carries a short tube for 
the 3021 Pro but it looks to me like that tube is not round.  Maybe an 
design difference I was unaware of with the Pro model.  Or maybe I 
should recheck the model number of my tripod... nah, it's out in the car 
and it's cold out there.  :-)
