A giant camera tripod on the cheap

Step 3 Put it together

Now you just need to smack the end caps onto the end of the smaller pipes where you started your measuring from, and slide the smaller pipes into the larger pipes. You can then put the legs of the tripod inside the other end of the large pipes and you now have a tall tripod! To raise it up even higher go around and lift each leg one at a time, and place the screw in the hole. This will prevent the legs from collapsing back into themselves. Working your way around you can get the tripod up to several feet in the air. Just don't place your camera on the top until you have the tripod to the height you want it. This thing does have a habit of falling over until all the legs are in the desired positions, and I'd hate to see you loose a camera.
