now tape the top in place and you're done! You could glue it down, nail it or weld it for all I care. It really depends on the materials you use.

If you notice that the the ball moves too freely inside the tube, you could try drilling a hole on the side of the tube and gluing a nut on it. Inset a bolt there which you can tighten or loosen according to the tension you want. In my case this wasn't necessary as the top offers enough friction to keep it in place once the camera is attached.

I don't recommend using this for larger camera's, but small point and shoots should work great!

You could try attaching something like a suction-cup to the bottom and you get yourself an attach-anywhere...spiderpod? hehe.
