The Double Take Tripod Mount

Sometimes you just need two, two people, two hands, two tripods? Or maybe one tripod is enough?I was at a family reunion almost a decade ago. I had one tripod and I kept having to switch between camera and video. I got the idea, wouldn't it be great if I could mount both to a single tripod. That was when I began devising the Double Take. I went through a few prototypes before I settled on the design you see here. And that's kind of where things died. I thought about trying to sell these but I simply lack the passion for sales. I am a maker, I like making things not generating sales.But now I bring this device to the community. I hope you like it. You can mount any accesory to it that uses a ¼-20 nut… in the photo you will notice i have mounted a video camera and a remote microphone receiver.The device folds up to fit in a camera bag easily. When you do to install the D-ring screws you will notice that its a really tight fit and you will probably need a coin or flat head screw driver to
